LlamaParse

aid: llamaparse
name: LlamaParse
description: 'LlamaParse is an enterprise document parsing and AI pipeline platform from LlamaIndex that converts complex
  PDFs, Office files, and 130+ document formats into LLM-ready structured outputs. The platform offers six composable products
  under a single API key: Parse (agentic OCR), Extract (structured data extraction), Classify, Split, Sheets, and Index. Parse
  supports tier-based processing from fast and cost-effective modes to advanced agentic and agentic-plus tiers that preserve
  tables, figures, and layout for high-fidelity RAG and document AI workflows. Developers access the platform through Python
  and TypeScript SDKs or directly via the LlamaCloud REST API, with EU-region hosting available.
