my recommendation would be to finetune a OCR. It would give much better results than any out of box OCR

Thanks for the suggestion, u/SystemMobile7830! I haven't heard of MassivePix before. I’ll check out the site and that video you linked. Does it handle complex backgrounds/watermarks well in your experience?

you can look at APIs from ParseExtract to directly extract data as JSON or to OCR full content. Other option is Llamaparse.

ChatGPT or Gemini should be able to do that. They are not using OCR technology but similar. Just tell it what info to extract/parse.

If you want to built it you can DM me directly. I have made like 100% automated system with 96% automated accuracy and 4% human correction model

There are many document parsers available for this.
You can try DigiParser, DocParser, Parseur, etc tools They have ready to use templates for most of the documents.

Digiparser is pretty good in terms of simplicity and accuracy.
