Documind is an open-source tool that turns documents into structured data using AI.

What it does:

- Extracts specific data from PDFs based on your custom schema - Returns clean, structured JSON that's ready to use - Works with just a PDF link + your schema definition

Just run npm install documind to get started.

Got excited about an open-source tool doing this.

Alas, i am let down. It is an open-source tool creating the prompt for the OpenAI API and i can't go and send customer data to them.

I'm aware of https://github.com/clovaai/donut so i hoped this would be more like that.

You might be able to use Ollama, which has a OpenAI compatible API.

Not without chaning the code (should be easy though)
