How this service works
Extract text from PDF documents with OCR (Tesseract) and vision mode support. Part of the Bismuth utility API suite for AI agents.
Output
Returns the extracted text content from the PDF document, processed using Tesseract OCR and optionally a vision mode for handling complex or scanned documents.
Example use cases
Scanned invoice text extraction
“I have a scanned invoice PDF and I need to pull out all the text so I can process the line items — can you run OCR on it and give me the full text?”
Legal document digitization
“Extract all the text from this legal contract PDF so I can search through it and summarize the key clauses.”
Research paper parsing
“I've got a research paper in PDF format and I need the raw text extracted from it — including any figures or captions — so I can feed it into my analysis pipeline.”
Technical details
Endpoint
POSThttps://pdf-api-production-cf1e.up.railway.app/extractWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need to extract text from PDF documents, especially scanned or image-based PDFs that require OCR. It is ideal for agent workflows where structured or unstructured PDF content needs to be read programmatically, particularly when documents are not machine-readable. Prefer this over general document converters when OCR and vision-mode accuracy are priorities.
Side effects
- Corrupted or password-protected PDF results in extraction failure
- Low-quality scans may produce garbled OCR output
- Very large PDFs may time out or exceed processing limits
- Non-PDF file format submitted as input returns an error
- Empty or image-only PDF with no extractable text returns blank output
