Mindee
Developer-first document parsing API with off-the-shelf and custom extractors.
About
Mindee is a French document AI company founded in 2018 that sells extraction as a developer API. It ships off-the-shelf APIs for invoices, receipts, passports, IDs, payslips, bank statements, and more — its payslip models claim above 95% field accuracy across 50+ countries (company-reported) — plus a custom document type builder for proprietary layouts. The API is synchronous and follows HTTP standards, with client libraries for major backend languages and no-code integrations including n8n, Activepieces, and Quickwork. Pricing is credit-based: one credit per extraction page by default, 1.5 with confidence scoring. There is a free plan with no credit card required and a 14-day trial of paid features. Reviewers rate it 4.8 out of 5. The main caveat is that credit pricing takes some mapping to your actual page volumes, and it is cloud-only with no on-premises option.
