Parsing that gets the hard parts right.
Tables, layouts, and scanned pages. The stuff that breaks other parsers. One API call, clean Markdown out.
Table & Layout Extraction
Complex tables, multi-column layouts, and nested structures. Parsed correctly.
Merged cells, nested headers, multi-column layouts. The stuff that usually comes back garbled. We turn it into clean, structured Markdown you can actually use.
Zero Data Retention
Your documents are deleted the moment parsing finishes.
Files are purged immediately after processing. Not after 30 days, not after 24 hours. We store metadata like page count and processing time, never your content. Built for teams where compliance isn't optional.
Fast & Scalable
Multiple parsing engines working in parallel so you never wait.
Multiple parsing engines run in parallel, so your documents get processed as fast as possible. Scale up to 300,000 pages per month on a single plan.

Currently, Parsebridge API supports PDF files only. We focus on providing the best possible extraction quality for PDF documents.
Credits are calculated based on the number of pages in your PDF. 1 credit = 1 page. You only pay for what you process.
If you run out of credits, API requests will return an error and we will alert you. You can upgrade your plan or wait for your monthly credits to refresh.
Yes, we currently support PDF files up to 100MB. For larger files, consider splitting them or contact support for enterprise solutions.
Yes! Every new account gets 50 free credits to test our service. No credit card required for the trial.
No, unused credits do not roll over to the next month. Each billing cycle starts fresh with your plan's credit allocation.
Under the hood, we use Docling — an open-source parser known for best-in-class table extraction and layout preservation. We handle the infrastructure, OCR, scaling, and API layer on top so you don't have to.
We parse the content with formatting like markdown supports it. Images are referenced as markdown comments.
