Extend

What is Extend?

Extend is a production-ready document processing platform that transforms unstructured documents into structured, validated data. Built for AI teams and enterprises, it handles the hardest documents—tables, forms, handwriting, signatures, and degraded scans—with state-of-the-art accuracy. The platform offers Parse 2.0, a layout-first parsing API built specifically for AI agents that need reliable inputs. Rather than building custom OCR pipelines or managing multiple vendors, teams use Extend's unified platform to extract, split, classify, and orchestrate document workflows in days instead of months. Trusted by companies like Brex, Square, Checkr, Zillow, and Fortune 500s across finance, healthcare, real estate, and logistics.

Key Features

• Parse 2.0 with SOTA Layout Recognition

  Rebuilt layout model trained on 1M+ challenging documents with specialized OCR and vision language models for tables, forms, handwriting, and barcodes. Achieves 95.7% per-field accuracy on RealDoc-Bench.

• Document Extraction & Splitting

  Extract structured data from invoices, contracts, and forms while splitting multi-page documents into organized sections with configurable schemas.

• Confidence Scoring & Multi-Pass Review

  Flag uncertainty before production with built-in confidence scoring. Enable review agents that check outputs to detect potential errors before users do.

• End-to-End Workflow Orchestration

  Build complex multi-step pipelines that parse, split, extract, validate, and route documents with versioning, durability, and conditional branching out of the box.

• Multiple Processing Modes

  Toggle between low latency for real-time use cases, cost-optimized for bulk jobs, or maximum accuracy when precision matters most.

• Studio & Evaluation Tools

  Visual interface for domain experts to iterate on schemas, run evaluations, catch regressions, and ship with confidence without CLI scripts.
