DeepSeek-OCR
DeepSeek-OCR is an open source model for Contexts Optical Compression, built to explore the boundaries of visual-text compression and investigate the role of vision encoders from an LLM-centric viewpoint. It is designed to compress long contexts through optical 2D mapping, using DeepEncoder as the core engine and DeepSeek3B-MoE-A570M as the decoder. DeepEncoder maintains low activations under high-resolution input while achieving high compression ratios, keeping the number of vision tokens manageable for document understanding. The model supports OCR and document parsing workflows for images and PDFs, with inference through vLLM or Transformers. Users can run image OCR with streaming output, process PDFs with high concurrency, or run batch evaluation for benchmarks. DeepSeek-OCR can convert documents to Markdown, perform free OCR without layouts, parse figures, describe images in detail, and locate referenced text inside an image.

Cohere Parse
Cohere Parse is a high-throughput vision-language model for processing large volumes of enterprise documents and converting complex, multimodal files into structured, machine-readable data. It goes beyond traditional OCR by understanding tables, forms, diagrams, embedded images, and document structure, returning clean Markdown for downstream processing and applications. Parse is trained for business documents across major industries and domains, including finance, insurance, and scientific work, and supports documents and images across nine major world languages. Spatial awareness preserves important visual relationships by returning bounding boxes for visual elements, helping improve retrieval, grounding, and automation. The model is designed for production-scale workloads, with high throughput and consistent parsing quality as document volumes grow. It can be used for automated document processing, extracting structured information from claims, contracts, and invoices.

Docling
Docling is an easy-to-use, self-contained, MIT-licensed open source toolkit for converting messy documents into structured data and simplifying downstream document and AI processing. It can parse many popular document formats into a unified and richly structured Docling Document, including PDF, DOCX, PPTX, XLSX, HTML, Markdown, AsciiDoc, CSV, images, audio, and scanned pages through an OCR engine of the user’s choice. Docling detects tables, formulas, reading order, chunks, bounding boxes, page headers and footers, pictures, captions, code, list items, paragraphs, cells, and document structure, making extracted content easier to process, search, and ingest into AI, RAG, and agentic systems. It can export parsed documents to JSON, text, Markdown, HTML, and Doctags, giving developers flexible outputs for pipelines and applications. Docling stores and traverses components according to reading order, partitions documents into bite-sized contiguous text chunks.
