Overview
Extend builds document processing infrastructure for AI applications, parsing, extracting and splitting the files that defeat conventional optical character recognition and template-based tools. It handles dense financial statements, insurance forms, contracts and scanned records, returning structured output with confidence scores that downstream systems can act on without a human re-checking every field. Companies embed it as the ingestion layer beneath their own products rather than building a document pipeline from scratch.
