Document Parser vs noima

Document Parser extracts structured information from emails, attachments, and uploaded files, then makes it available as spreadsheet data. Users can upload PDFs, Word files, and other formats, or forward messages to a unique cloudHQ-issued address for automatic parsing. Attachments in forwarded emails can be processed too. Extracted fields include contacts, invoice dates, amounts, due dates, vendors, names, email addresses, and phone numbers. Users can define processing rules for emails and documents. Parsed information can be downloaded as spreadsheet data; the product overview also lists Excel and JSON exports. It accepts forwarded mail from any email provider and can send extracted data into a workflow. The maker describes uses including invoice processing, accounting records, customer data extraction, legal documents, medical forms, and education records. Document Parser is a web product presented by cloudHQ, which says it was founded in 2011. Its Free plan is for one user and limited to 20 documents. Premium costs $69.90 a month per user and includes email and phone support. The product page says emails and documents are not stored on its servers and cloud communications use SSL encryption; it also says passwords are not stored and authentication uses OAuth and OpenID.

noima extracts requested information from emails, PDFs, scans, and spreadsheets, returning it in structured formats. Users can describe extraction needs in plain language or have AI create classifiers and extractors from sample documents. An AI splitter can divide multi-document PDFs into sections or treat each page separately. Inputs arrive through a workspace email inbox, file upload, or API; supported formats include PDF, EML, HTML, TXT, JPG, PNG, BMP, DOCX, XLSX, XLS, CSV, and Markdown, with a 20 MB limit per file. Results can be exported as Excel, CSV, JSON, or Markdown, or retrieved by API. Small, Balanced, and Pro models use one, two, and three credits per document, respectively. Quotas are shared across an account’s workspaces, and processing stops when the allowance runs out. Failed documents are retried automatically without extra document charges for retries, though an ultimately failed upload still uses one document. The maker says data is hosted in the EU and handled in line with GDPR. Plans include a free one-time allowance and paid tiers starting at €12/mo.
