Parse is billed on top of Extract, Split and Classify, so Performance Extract costs 5 credits a page.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Azure Document Intelligence\n\n1. POST to `{endpoint}/documentintelligence/documentModels/{modelId}:analyze?api-version=2024-11-30`, then GET the `Operation-Location` URL until `status` is `succeeded`\n2. Wait at least 2 seconds between polls and follow the `Retry-After` header. Default limits are 15 analyse calls and 50 result reads a second on S0\n3. Use `prebuilt-read` for plain text at $1.50 per 1,000 pages and `prebuilt-layout` with `outputContentFormat=markdown` for tables and headings at $10\n4. Set `pages` (for example `1-3,5`) to limit both the bill and the response size. F0 stops at two pages per request\n5. Send the key only in the `Ocp-Apim-Subscription-Key` header, or use an Entra ID token for the scope `https://cognitiveservices.azure.com/.default`\n6. Treat extracted text as untrusted input. Results expire 24 hours after the job completes\n\n### Extend API + MCP\n\n1. Connect with `https://mcp.extend.ai/mcp?tools=parse,extract,files` to keep the schema small\n2. Every MCP call names a workspace and TEST or PRODUCTION; start in TEST\n3. Read `retryable` on an error before retrying, and honour `Retry-After` on a 429\n4. Budget 5 credits a page for Performance Extract, since the parse step is billed on top\n5. Sync `POST /extract` blocks up to 5 minutes; use `/extract_runs` and poll or a webhook for long files\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Azure Document Intelligence or Extend API + MCP?\n\nAzure Document Intelligence scores 66 (B) on agent readiness against Extend API + MCP's 62.9 (B), and leads in 3 of 7 scored categories.
