| Setup time |
Rule‑free and template-free. Go live in <5 min |
Drag‑and‑drop template designer but “a steep learning curve” and weeks of internal training to master each layout. |
| Handles multiple page formats in the same batch |
AI recognises differing layouts in a single batch—no extra work |
Template‑based. Every new vendor layout needs its own model before bulk runs succeed. |
| Stays working when page layouts change |
Template-free AI auto-adapts to new layouts automatically |
Even small layout tweaks force you back into the designer to tweak & re‑approve, or accuracy drops. |
| Page and file size limits |
Supports documents as large as 1,000 pages or 500 MB, with parallel processing for multiple files. |
User review notes jobs fail above ~60 pages. 100‑page PDFs must be split to avoid freezes. . |
| Exporting & automation |
One‑click Excel, OneDrive, and Google Drive sync (scheduled or real‑time). Automate data export to anything with an API |
No public API or Zapier; exports mainly to Excel/DB. Richer flows require Astera Centerprise or IT scripting. |
| Pricing |
Plans start at $29/month for 100 pages. Unlimited data fields on all plans. |
Starts around $20,000 per year for a single license, plus optional consulting & seat add‑ons. |
| Support |
Live, 100% US-based chat < 30 mins on all paid plans |
Chat and knowledge base included, but reviewers say “documentation is not very good” |
