Document & PDF API

Turn PDFs into structured data without running document workers.

Upload a file, start a parse, read back Markdown or JSON. Flowyn runs the parsers and links every output to the job.

  • PDF and DOCX parsing that keeps headings and tables
  • HTML to PDF and intelligent PDF splitting
  • Honest results: empty pages stay empty, no guessing

Quick answers

Does it do OCR?
No. Flowyn reads the text layer of a PDF. Image-only pages are returned empty rather than invented.
Is it synchronous?
No. Every operation returns HTTP 202 with a job id. Read the file job until it is complete, then download the output.
What does it cost to start?
Starter is $0 with 10,000 credits a month. Paid plans start at $9/month.
