  • pdf-extract

    A rust library for extracting content from pdfs

  • https://github.com/jrmuizel/pdf-extract could be extended to do something like this.

  • layout-parser

    A Unified Toolkit for Deep Learning Based Document Image Analysis

  • I built my own solution using a combination of Tesseract and OpenCV (in python). But even though the source PDF content is computer generated, I still get sporadic OCR errors. After writing my solution, I came across this https://github.com/Layout-Parser/layout-parser which might be a better starting point for dealing with PDFs but I haven't tried it yet.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
