The honest brief

LlamaParse

Parsing tuned for RAG by the team behind the LlamaIndex framework — layout-aware, multimodal extraction of tables and charts, not just flat OCR.

  • Strong on tables, charts, scanned PDFs
  • 90+ formats, 100+ languages
  • Free tier with 10k credits/month
  • Tight fit with the LlamaIndex framework
  • Cloud-only, credit-based costs add up
  • Best modes cost more credits per page
  • Core parser is proprietary, not open source

Rossum

Runs on a purpose-built transactional LLM that learns from each customer's corrections, rather than rigid template- or rules-based OCR.

  • Captures and validates invoice data
  • 276 languages plus handwriting
  • Pushes data into ERP and approvals
  • Strong enterprise track record
  • Enterprise pricing, no public tiers
  • Now part of Coupa post-acquisition
  • Overkill for simple OCR needs
