Instant JSON

The Instant JSON format is the native annotation format of the Nutrient API, and it defines an extensive number of annotation types and properties for your documents. Use this format to programmatically generate robust, feature-rich annotations for your documents.

Security is our top priority

No document storage

No input or resulting documents are stored on our infrastructure. All files are deleted as soon as a request finishes. Alternatively, check out our self-hosted product.

HTTPS encryption

All communication between your application and Nutrient is done via HTTPS to ensure your data is encrypted when it’s sent to us.

Safe payment processing

All payments are handled by Paddle. Nutrient DWS Processor API never has direct access to any of your payment data.
