AI Document Processing API

Purpose-built AI for every document workflow. Nutrient weaves machine intelligence into redaction, extraction, and OCR — so your applications and AI agents can process documents end to end.


The read-write gap

AI agents can read documents. They can’t write them.

Large language models parse text brilliantly — but they can’t manipulate PDF structure, apply legally binding redactions, validate digital signatures, or fill forms with pixel-perfect fidelity. That gap between reading and writing is where documents break.

Nutrient closes it. Our AI-powered APIs give your agents and applications the document manipulation layer they’re missing — redact, extract, sign, convert, and validate with one API call.

Why developers choose Nutrient for AI document processing

One API, full stack

Build, integrate, automate, and understand — all from a single platform. No stitching together separate tools.

Enterprise-grade security

SOC 2 Type 2 audited. Self-host or run on Nutrient-managed infrastructure. Your documents never leave your control.

Purpose-built, not bolted on

Document-tuned AI trained on real-world layouts — not a general-purpose LLM wrapper. Deterministic results you can audit.


Frequently asked questions

What is an AI document processing API?

An AI document processing API lets your applications and AI agents understand and act on documents over a REST endpoint — extracting data, recognizing text with OCR, pulling tables, and redacting sensitive information. Nutrient DWS Processor API provides these capabilities as single API calls, with no ML infrastructure to manage or models to train.

What can the Nutrient document AI API do?

It powers AI redaction (detecting and permanently removing PII, financial, and health data), key-value extraction from unstructured documents, table extraction to Excel/JSON/XML/CSV, OCR in 60+ languages, and general data extraction — the building blocks for document understanding and ingestion pipelines.

Can I use the API for document ingestion and processing pipelines?

Yes. The API is built for document processing at scale: Feed documents in; run extraction, OCR, and redaction steps; and get structured output back to drive downstream systems. Each capability is a separate endpoint you can compose into an ingestion pipeline.

How do I integrate the document processing API?

Send your document to the Processor API over REST and request the operation you need. The getting started guide and Postman collection get a first request running quickly, with examples available in multiple languages.

Is the AI document API SOC 2 compliant?

Yes. Nutrient DWS is SOC 2 Type 2 audited, and you can self-host or run on Nutrient-managed infrastructure, so your documents stay under your control.

Is there a free trial, and how does pricing work?

You can start free with Nutrient DWS credits — no credit card required — and test before scaling. See the Processor API pricing page for current credit details.
