# Bem **Canonical:** https://apis.io/providers/bem/ **Website:** https://bem.ai **APIs profiled:** 22 Bem is the production layer for unstructured data. Its API turns inbound documents — PDFs, images, video, audio, and email — into structured JSON against a schema you define, using versioned, LLM-powered functions (extract, classify, parse, split, join, enrich, payload-shaping, and send) composed into reusable workflows. Bem automates document-heavy tasks such as invoice handling, claims adjudication, and data onboarding, with automatic schema inference, strict type enforcement, confidence scoring and drift detection, human-in-the-loop review, webhooks, and a knowledge graph. It offers US and EU regional endpoints, official SDKs, a CLI, a Terraform provider, and an MCP server, and is SOC 2 Type II, HIPAA, and GDPR compliant. ## Kin Score — 57.9 / 100 (strong) Scored 2026-08-17 under rubric 0.11.0.
