It is a preview that Cloudflare calls an early checkpoint, served under an unversioned ID with no SLA, and its promised open weights have no date or licence.\n\n**Mindee API.** Extracted data kept 12 hours by default (1 to 24 configurable), deletable on fetch, source files never stored. Every call needs a model_id created in the web platform first.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Clairic\n\n1. Send `model` as `clairic` in the body as well as in the URL. The input schema requires `model` and `fields`\n2. Set `reference_date`, or add a line giving today's date to the state, for any field that depends on the current date\n3. Treat a null `value` as not found, and read `p_null`, `confidence` or the 80% interval before acting. Typed output is well formed, not necessarily correct\n4. Extract the inputs and do multi-step sums and table totals in code. Cloudflare says long arithmetic chains aren't reliable yet\n5. Embed images as data URLs or base64 objects, at most four, 4 MiB each and 8 MiB in all. Remote image URLs are refused\n6. Read the internal code on a 429. 3036 means the day's 10,000 free neurons are spent, 3040 means capacity, so retry later\n\n### Mindee API\n\n1. Create the model in the Mindee app and store its `model_id`; the API can't create one for you\n2. Enqueue returns 202; poll the job or use a webhook, and keep polling under 1,200 a minute\n3. Send `Authorization: $MINDEE_API_KEY` with no Bearer prefix\n4. Turn on confidence scores only when needed, since they cost 1.5 credits a page instead of 1\n5. Keep schemas to 25 fields or fewer, the documented recommendation\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Clairic or Mindee API?\n\nClairic scores 66.3 (B) on agent readiness against Mindee API's 61.3 (C), and leads in 4 of 7 scored categories. Mindee API leads on reliability and maintenance \u0026 community.\n\n### Do Clairic and Mindee API need an API key?\n\nBoth need an API key.\n\n### Can an agent call Clairic and Mindee API without installing anything?\n\nYes. Clairic has a hosted endpoint at https://api.cloudflare.com/client/v4/accounts/{account_id}/ai/run/@cf/cloudflare/clairic and Mindee API at https://api-v2.mindee.net/v2.\n\n\n## For agents\n\n- This comparison as JSON: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/cloudflare-clairic-vs-mindee.json, and with the fewest tokens: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/cloudflare-clairic-vs-mindee.min.md\n- Over MCP at https://www.anchorterminal.com/mcp (no key): `compare_tools {\"a\": \"cloudflare-clairic\", \"b\": \"mindee\"}`.
