    How It Works

    1

    Upload a PDF file or provide a URL to the Mixpeek API.

    2

    The document is classified as digital-native or scanned, with OCR applied as needed.

    3

    Layout analysis segments the document into pages, paragraphs, tables, and form fields.

    4

    An LLM maps extracted content to your target JSON schema or a default document schema.

    5

    Structured JSON is returned with pages, content blocks, tables, and metadata.

    Code Examples

    import os, requests
    
    API = "https://api.mixpeek.com"
    H = {"Authorization": f"Bearer {os.environ['MIXPEEK_API_KEY']}",
         "X-Namespace": os.environ["NAMESPACE_ID"]}
    
    # 1. a bucket, with a schema that declares the field you will send
    bucket = requests.post(f"{API}/v1/buckets", headers=H, json={
        "bucket_name": "pdf-inputs",
        "bucket_schema": {"properties": {"pdf": {"type": "pdf"}}},
    }).json()
    
    # 2. land the file as an object. the URL goes in data, on the blob
    requests.post(f"{API}/v1/buckets/{bucket['bucket_id']}/objects", headers=H, json={
        "key_prefix": "run-1",
        "blobs": [{"property": "pdf", "type": "pdf",
                   "data": "https://example.com/report.pdf"}],
    })
    
    # 3. a collection over that bucket, running the extractor
    collection = requests.post(f"{API}/v1/collections", headers=H, json={
        "collection_name": "pdf-to-json",
        "source": {"type": "bucket", "bucket_ids": [bucket["bucket_id"]]},
        "feature_extractor": {"feature_extractor_name": "document_graph_extractor", "version": "v1"},
    }).json()
    
    # 4. run extraction over the bucket
    requests.post(f"{API}/v1/buckets/{bucket['bucket_id']}/batches", headers=H, json={
        "collection_ids": [collection["collection_id"]],
        "auto_submit": True,
    })
    
    # 5. read the output
    docs = requests.get(
        f"{API}/v1/collections/{collection['collection_id']}/documents", headers=H
    ).json()
    print(docs)

    Processing millions of files?

    Run this as a managed pipeline over your whole library, no infrastructure to build or maintain. Talk to us about processing at scale.

    Run it over a library

    Mixpeek runs this conversion as a pipeline over a whole library in your object storage, with the output landing as queryable documents. It is not a single-file converter.
