Data extraction mande easy. Extract and enhance data from anything in a single no-code platform.

Every LLM, RAG, or automation project starts with the same boring chore: turning messy files into clean text.
PDFs, scans, images, audio, email archives → clean Markdown.
We built one Web Service and API that does all of it. Meet Scan Hero.
The problem: document ingestion is a tax on every AI build and the common user.
You stitch together a dozen libraries + cloud OCR + a transcription service, each with its own SDK, failure modes, and bill.
Weeks of glue code before you ship your actual product.
The options today all leave a gap:
→ Open-source parsers (MarkItDown, Docling, Marker): great on easy text, but you self-host, run GPUs, and get no audio/email.
→ Enterprise OCR (Adobe, AWS, Azure): accurate, but priced and shaped for big orgs.
Nobody covers it all. Until now.
Scan Hero is one managed Web Service + API + dashboard:
✅ 40+ formats in → clean file formats out (including everybody's favorite - Markdown)
✅ Scanned PDFs & images (vision pipeline)
✅ Audio & video (speech-to-text)
✅ PST/MBOX archives → per-message Markdown
One endpoint. Zero infra for you to run.
Our unfair advantage: breadth.
Most rivals do documents only. Scan Hero handles text, scanned, image, audio/video, AND email behind a single developer-friendly API.
Stop stitching 5 vendors together.
It's not just conversion. Every job comes with:
🔧 Optional LLM refinement (cleanup, summarize, restructure)
📋 Reusable templates per use case
⭐ Automatic quality scoring — a trust signal others don't surface
🔁 Re-export to other formats such as DOCX / PDF / CSV / JSON and more.
Developer-first by default:
→ REST API
→ Python & TypeScript SDKs
→ Webhooks for async delivery
→ Batch jobs for scale
Ship file ingestion in an afternoon instead of rebuilding the same brittle pipeline.
About Pricing:
Pricing is predictable — credits, not surprises.
Free tier: 100 welcome credits to try.
Starter $5.99 / Developer $15.99 / Pro $39.99 per month.
Credits map to conversions (10 cr baseline), so cost scales cleanly with use. No infra bill, no GPU box, no on-call.
Who it's for:
→ Indie & small teams adding ingestion to RAG, search, or automation
→ Ops & knowledge teams converting backlogs (contracts, invoices, archives) — no code required
If your inputs are messy and mixed, this is for you.
The promise is narrow and concrete:
Reliable data extraction across every common format, behind one Web Service and/or API, as you prefer it.
No GPUs. No pipeline glue. No model hosting. Just clean text out.
Stop rebuilding the ingestion layer on every project.
