Pricing pages for document-extraction APIs are written to win a different comparison than the

one you actually need. Per-page rates hide minimums. Credit systems hide per-document math.

So here's the arithmetic for one concrete, boring workload: 1,000 single-page invoices a

month, at each vendor's published July-2026 pricing. (I sell one of these APIs — disclosure

at the bottom — but every number here is from the vendor's own pricing page.)
