Document extraction software

Extract structured tables and fields from unstructured documents using AI

Turn a pile of business documents into structured rows, then check the numbers before they reach Excel, your accounting system or an API.

Manual data entry is rarely hard because one field is difficult to type. It is hard because the files arrive in different layouts, tables continue onto another page and one wrong digit can spoil the finished dataset. Dynamite Docs reads embedded text when it is available and uses a vision-capable model for scanned or image-only pages.

The document extraction workspace returns named fields and table rows rather than a long block of OCR text. You can compare uncertain values with the source, fix them inline and reuse saved corrections on similar layouts. Once the result is ready, send it to Excel, CSV, JSON, Google Sheets, a webhook or the REST API.

Use the source file you already have

Digital PDFs: Use the existing text layer first, then organize fields and tables without retyping them.
Scanned files and receipts: Read image-based pages with AI OCR while keeping page layout available for review.
Multi-page packets: Carry tables across page breaks, remove repeated headers and keep page references for checking.
Mixed business documents: Process invoices, statements, purchase orders and other business files in the same workspace.

Get fields and rows, not an OCR text dump

Document-level values stay separate from repeating records. That gives reviewers a usable schema and gives downstream systems predictable columns.

Document fields: Vendor name, invoice number, issue date, total amount
Table headers: Line number, item description, quantity, unit price, line total
Repeating rows: One normalized record per transaction or line item
Dates and currencies: Standardized ISO dates and clean numeric currency values
Source coordinates: Bounding boxes linking extracted values back to page locations
Confidence scoring: Cell-level and field-level confidence indicators for review

From file to reviewed result

1. Add the original files. Upload digital PDFs, scans, images or supported office files. API clients can submit stored documents programmatically.
2. Let the document define the schema. AI document extraction identifies key-value fields, tables and repeating rows without a coordinate template for each layout.
3. Check the result against the source. Review flagged fields beside the document, correct values inline and save useful field mappings for similar files.
4. Send reviewed data where it belongs. Download Excel, CSV or JSON, push a table to Google Sheets, or deliver results through webhooks and the REST API.

Keep the source beside every correction

The review workspace places the document next to the extracted table. Open a flagged cell, compare it with the page and fix the value without bouncing between a PDF viewer and a spreadsheet.

Choose an output your next system can use

One reviewed extraction can become a workbook, a flat import file, structured JSON or a shared Google Sheet.

Format	Data structure	Useful when
Excel (.xlsx)	Multi-tab workbooks with document fields and line items	Financial modeling, reconciliation, and audit review
CSV	Flat tabular rows with normalized column headers	ERP data imports, data lakes, and spreadsheet analysis
JSON	Structured objects and typed arrays with coordinate data	Automated APIs, backend pipelines, and cloud workflows
Google Sheets	Live sheet export with dedicated document tabs	Collaborative team reviews and operational tracking

Treat confidence as a review cue, not a guarantee

Confidence

Confidence scores help you decide where to look first. Confirm money, tax identifiers, account details and payment dates against the source even when a score is high.

Accuracy

A reliable text layer avoids visual character recognition. Scans and photos add blur, skew, compression and lighting problems that need closer review.

Failure state

Password-protected files, damaged PDFs and illegible scans may fail before extraction or produce incomplete data. Use the cleanest original available.

Product boundary

Dynamite Docs extracts fields and tables. It does not recreate the source document's visual design, logos or page composition.

Know what the software checks and what the reviewer owns

The platform prepares the file and structures the result. Your rules and reviewers decide whether that result is safe to use.

System layer	Handled by	Primary function
Document ingestion	Dynamite Docs	Text extraction, image rasterization, page splitting, and layout hashing
Schema inference	AI Provider (Hosted or BYOK)	Proposes document fields, table headers, and repeating line items
Data verification	Human reviewer & rules engine	Confidence scoring, mathematical reconciliation, and final sign-off
Downstream delivery	Integrations & API	Exports to Excel, CSV, Google Sheets, webhooks, and REST endpoints

Privacy, security and data residency controls

Free and anonymous files stay in browser storage, but hosted extraction still sends prepared document content to an eligible AI provider. Paid plans add encrypted cloud file storage.

Every signed-in tier can connect an AI provider key. Hobby, Pro, and Ultra can use the local Ollama companion for model inference on the user's computer.

Questions about document extraction software

What is document extraction software and how does it work?

Document extraction software reads text and layout from PDFs, scans, and images, then proposes named fields and table rows. In Dynamite Docs, you compare that result with the source before exporting it to Excel, CSV, or JSON.

How does AI document extraction differ from traditional template OCR?

Traditional OCR depends on rigid coordinate zones that break whenever a vendor alters their layout. AI document extraction uses multimodal models that understand visual context and semantic meaning, extracting data accurately across varied layouts.

Can I extract data from multi-page documents and continued tables?

Yes. The extraction can join continuing rows and remove repeated headers. Review every page break because wrapped rows, subtotals and layout changes can still split or duplicate records.

Which AI providers can I use with Dynamite Docs document extraction?

You can use our managed hosted models or connect your own API keys (BYOK) from providers like OpenAI, Anthropic, Google Gemini, Mistral, and Groq, or run local models offline using our signed Ollama companion.
