How ADE Works
provides multiple APIs for document processing: Parse, Extract, Classify, Section, and Split. Most workflows start with Parse, which converts your documents into structured data. After parsing, you can optionally use Extract to pull specific data fields, Section to generate a hierarchical table of contents, or Split to separate multi-document files. Use Classify independently to label pages by document type before or without parsing.Get Started
