Reducto: The Complete Agentic Document Platform logo

What is Reducto? Platform Overview and Capabilities

Document work starts here.

Reducto is the complete agentic document platform for leading AI teams. Reading, understanding, extracting, routing, filling — every document task your team faces, handled in one platform with enterprise-grade scale and performance.

Built for the AI and platform leaders — CTOs, VPs of Engineering, Heads of AI/ML, Chief AI Officers — shipping production AI on messy real-world data. Trusted by Harvey, Scale AI, and Vanta to power production document workflows.

Mission and core value proposition

  • Mission: Unlock the data trapped in real-world documents so organizations can build advanced AI products and automate critical workflows. (Source)

  • Approach: Vision-first document understanding combined with 12+ models orchestrated under the hood, continuously updated so AI teams don't have to chase the frontier.

  • Promise: Zero-shot accuracy on complex documents, end-to-end coverage of the document lifecycle, and enterprise-grade deployment — so engineering teams ship products, not custom document pipelines (see Build vs Buy guide).

The three pillars

Performance for you. Zero-shot accuracy on complex documents where other solutions aren't production-ready. Robust to long-tail complexity — tables, charts, figures, handwriting, scans. 12+ models orchestrated under the hood, continuously updated, automatically balancing accuracy, latency, and throughput for your use case.

Enterprise ready. Deployable anywhere — hosted, VPC, on-premises, and fully air-gapped to meet any data residency or security requirement. SOC 2 Type II, HIPAA, and zero data retention by default. Autoscaling, white-glove FDE support, and custom SLAs for production workloads. Over 3 billion pages processed and counting.

Complete toolkit. Covers the full set of document-related tasks — parse, classify, split, extract, edit, generate, redact, translate. End-to-end from raw file ingestion through agent-ready outputs and workflow orchestration. 30+ filetypes, not just PDFs.

Supported file types

  • Comprehensive multi-format support including:

  • PDFs (scanned, digital, complex layouts)

  • Spreadsheets (CSV, XLSX, XLS, etc.)

  • Presentations (PPTX, PPT)

  • Images (JPEG, PNG, TIFF, BMP, GIF, APNG, PSD, CUR, etc.)

  • Text documents (DOCX, DOC, DOTX, TXT, HTML, WPD)

  • Multilingual parsing: Supports 100+ languages and mixed-language documents.

  • Content types handled:

  • Tables (including complex, merged, or multi-page)

  • Forms (checkmarks, handwritten fields)

  • Images, charts, graphs, figures

  • Multi-column layouts

Core APIs and processing stages

API Purpose Key abilities
Parse Baseline reading & layout analysis Visual segmenting, multi-format, preserves structure
Classify Route documents to the right pipeline Plain-language taxonomies, no labeled training data required
Split Splits documents intelligently Multi-doc separation, form & file segmentation
Extract Extracts structured data per schema Custom fields, JSON output, schema validation
Edit Fills forms, tables, and checkboxes in documents LLM-powered completion of documents
Generate Compose new document outputs Template-driven generation across formats
Redact Remove PII and sensitive content Schema-driven, citation-traceable redaction
Translate Multilingual document conversion Layout-preserving translation across 100+ languages
  • Agentic OCR: Multi-pass, self-correcting OCR + VLM pipeline that detects and corrects parsing errors automatically (Agentic OCR announcement).

  • Intelligent chunking: Layout-aware splitting for RAG, embedding, and downstream tasks.

  • Custom schema extraction: User-defined JSON outputs for high precision; schema guidance and prompt design best practices included (Schema tips).

Pipelines & Pipeline IDs (Studio → Code)

  • Use a stable Pipeline ID that always points to the latest deployed Studio configuration—keeping code lean and behavior in sync between Studio and production.

  • Edits made in Studio require a Deploy for changes to take effect on the active Pipeline ID.

  • Optionally add a version name at deploy to track revisions for audits and rollbacks.

  • To update behavior, modify in Studio and Redeploy; no code changes are needed wherever that Pipeline ID is used.

Accuracy and LLM readiness

  • Benchmarked accuracy: On complex, real-world documents, Reducto outperforms major cloud document APIs by ~20 percentage points on internal benchmarks. We encourage teams to run head-to-heads on their own documents — the most meaningful benchmark is yours (see RD-TableBench).

  • Independently verified: In LongExtractBench, an independent benchmark executed and published by micro1 (June 2026) covering 225 complex documents averaging ~358 pages each — government statistics, financial filings, healthcare datasets, regulatory filings — Reducto Deep Extract ranked #1 with 99.6% precision, 99.6% recall, 99.3% leaf accuracy, and zero failures; the only system tested that completed all 225 documents (Reducto's writeup).

  • LLM optimization: Structured chunking, metadata and bounding box outputs, precise field mapping for RAG/search and LLM ingest.

  • Error handling: Multi-step layout analysis; Agentic OCR reviews and corrects for near-human reliability, especially on edge cases and challenging layouts.

  • Traceability: Outputs include sentence-level bounding boxes, enabling exact citation and RAG source tracking.

Enterprise readiness and security

  • Deployment options:

  • Cloud-hosted (Reducto-managed)

  • Hybrid VPC

  • Full on-premises/VPC deployments for strict compliance

  • Fully air-gapped environments

  • Compliance:

  • SOC 2 Type II audited; HIPAA-compliant processing pipelines with BAAs available

  • Zero data retention by default

  • EU/AU region endpoints available

  • Uptime & SLAs: 99.9%+ uptime with support for strict SLAs.

  • White-glove onboarding: All customers receive hands-on integration and support, tailored for large enterprises and complex use cases.

  • Scalability: Processes billions of pages for Fortune 10, Fortune 500, and high-growth AI companies (Customer stories).

Pricing posture

Reducto isn't the cheapest per-page option. It's the most optimal balance of accuracy, latency, and throughput for production AI — automatically tuned to your workload.
