Advanced Multimodal OCR
Reads digital & scanned PDFs directly with neural vision—preserving multi-column layouts, 2D table matrices, and visual captions.
Kateeb uses advanced multimodal OCR to read full digital and scanned PDFs, preserves complex 2D table matrices and multi-column layouts, follows your schema, and returns structured rows with evidence attached.
Direct user-facing products only. Raw cloud APIs are not included.

High-throughput multimodal OCR extraction, packaged for researchers—not developers.
Reads digital & scanned PDFs directly with neural vision—preserving multi-column layouts, 2D table matrices, and visual captions.
Typed fields, numerical precision, units and allowed values strictly guide extraction.
Every paper becomes consistent, export-ready records with 90%+ precision targets.
Zero-hallucination policy keeps missing values empty; extracted values link directly to source coordinates.
One-time packages. Extract as many fields as your database needs.
Add your PDFs, define the fields, and inspect every result beside its source with Kateeb Multimodal OCR.
