Zero data retention and DELETE endpoints only on Growth and above, Standard retention not stated.\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### Reducto API + MCP\n\n1. Use `/parse_async` or `/extract_async` with a webhook for anything long; sync calls time out at 900 seconds\n2. Pass `jobid://\u003cjob_id\u003e` from a parse into extract or split so you don't pay to parse twice\n3. Call `get_job` when a tool returns a URL result instead of reading fields from the truncated reply\n4. The hosted MCP can't read local files; run `uvx mcp-server-reducto` when the agent needs to upload from disk\n5. Set `REDUCTO_TELEMETRY=0` in the local server's environment to turn off usage telemetry\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Clairic or Reducto API + MCP?\n\nClairic scores 66.3 (B) on agent readiness against Reducto API + MCP's 62.9 (B), and leads in 4 of 7 scored categories.
