## Tools

- [Extend AI](https://aidemos.com/tools/extend-ai) — Schema-driven extraction for finance PDFs that reconstructs nested JSON well, but still needs review for ordering, IDs, and a few scalar values.
- [Reducto](https://aidemos.com/tools/reducto) — Structured PDF extraction with nested JSON, citations, and row-preserving tables; invoices worked cleanly, while bank statements still need review.
- [Retab](https://aidemos.com/tools/retab) — Schema-first PDF extraction for finance documents that returns nested JSON with minimal setup.
- [Nanonets](https://aidemos.com/tools/nanonets) — Schema-first PDF extraction that produces usable exports, but dense table rows still need review.
- [Datalab](https://aidemos.com/tools/datalab) — Schema-paste extraction for bank statements and invoices, with cited JSON output and fast-mode recovery when schemas get large.
