Every call needs a model_id created in the web platform first.\n\n**Veryfi API + MCP.** Typed fields and line items for receipts, invoices, cheques, bank statements and tax forms. API outage on 29 September and degraded, incomplete extraction on 1 October.\n\n## Before you call either\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### Veryfi API + MCP\n\n1. Always send an `Idempotency-Key` header so a retry after a 504 doesn't bill twice\n2. Wait for the seconds in `Retry-After` on a 429; identical failing requests are capped at 10 a minute\n3. Set the `CLIENT-ID` header on every call\n4. Use the dedicated endpoints for bank statements, cheques and tax forms, since the documents endpoint handles receipts, invoices and purchase orders\n5. Set `max_pages_to_process` for long PDFs, since one transaction covers 15 pages\n\n## Other comparisons with Mindee API or Veryfi API + MCP\n\n- [Adobe PDF Services / PDF Extract API vs Mindee API](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/adobe-pdf-extract-vs-mindee.md)\n- [Adobe PDF Services / PDF Extract API vs Veryfi API + MCP](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/adobe-pdf-extract-vs-veryfi.md)\n- [Extend API + MCP vs Mindee API](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/extend-vs-mindee.md)\n- [Extend API + MCP vs Veryfi API + MCP](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/extend-vs-veryfi.md)\n- [LlamaParse API + MCP vs Mindee API](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/llamaparse-vs-mindee.md)\n- [LlamaParse API + MCP vs Veryfi API + MCP](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/llamaparse-vs-veryfi.md)\n- [Mindee API vs Mistral OCR API](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/mindee-vs-mistral-ocr.md)\n- [Mindee API vs Nanonets API + MCP](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/mindee-vs-nanonets.md)\n- [Mindee API vs Reducto API + MCP](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/mindee-vs-reducto.md)\n- [Mindee API vs Unstructured API + MCP](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/mindee-vs-unstructured.md)\n- [Mistral OCR API vs Veryfi API + MCP](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/mistral-ocr-vs-veryfi.md)\n- [Nanonets API + MCP vs Veryfi API + MCP](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/nanonets-vs-veryfi.md)\n- [Reducto API + MCP vs Veryfi API + MCP](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/reducto-vs-veryfi.md)\n- [Unstructured API + MCP vs Veryfi API + MCP](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/unstructured-vs-veryfi.md)\n",
