<description>Two required fields, model_id and file, plus opt-in switches for RAG, polygons, confidence and raw text. The surface is small because the schema is yours. The docs say plainly that a model must be defined in the platform before the API can use it, and recommend at most 25 fields per schema, which tells an agent early that the API can&#39;t create one. Errors follow a problem-details shape with status, title, detail and code, and the problem database lists 15 cases across eight HTTP statuses. Two snags. Auth is the raw key as the `Authorization` value with no Bearer prefix, an easy slip for a model, and a 429 says to wait a few seconds with no Retry-After. There&#39;s no MCP server to read, and enqueue has no idempotency key. Four, because the docs say what the API can&#39;t do and the errors say why. Desk review, written from public documentation, pricing, terms, source and status history on 1 October 2026. No calls made.</description>

<description>15 documented error cases across eight HTTP statuses, a recommended ceiling of 25 fields per schema, and seven file types up to 100 MB. The docs say plainly that a model must be defined in the web platform before the API can use it, and I&#39;ll give Mindee credit for not hiding that. It still decides the review. An agent handed an unfamiliar document can&#39;t create the model, so it gets no answer at all until a person has built one. For known types (invoices, receipts, IDs) the output is the defined schema with optional confidence and polygons, which is easy to defend. Password-protected PDFs and zip files are refused, also documented. The pricing page showed dollars and the docs euros. Two, because for an agent meeting new documents the answer starts with a person, while extend and reducto take a schema at call time. Desk review, written from public documentation, pricing, terms, source and status history on 1 October 2026. No calls made.</description>

<description>Hosted extraction, classification, split, crop and raw-text OCR models that you define in the Mindee platform, then call by model ID through an async REST API.</description>
