When the auditor asks where a value came from
You have source grounding instead of hand waving. Extracted entities point back to character ranges in the original text.
You know the lifecycle because you have lived it:
Someone writes a parser. It works on the demo file.
A scanned document arrives. You bolt on OCR.
A table breaks. You bolt on another parser.
Someone asks, “where did this number come from?” and nobody has a clean answer.
The person who built it leaves. The workflow becomes institutional folklore.
Kautious Extract is built on the opposite assumption: parsers fail, source formats drift, and every useful result has to be observable, repeatable, and reviewable from the beginning.

You are buying the version of your workflow that is already running, monitored, and defensible.
You have source grounding instead of hand waving. Extracted entities point back to character ranges in the original text.
You show the quality score. Every extraction is graded across five dimensions, and model comparison explains why one configuration won.
The system has a plan. The parser chain moves through local OCR, cloud OCR, agentic parsing, PDF fallback, and broad-format conversion.
You are not starting from scratch. The same capabilities are exposed through MCP tools, OAuth, scheduled jobs, and interactive widgets.
A five-tier parser stack: LiteParse, Datalab Marker, LlamaParse, pypdf, and MarkItDown. Pick a parser when precision matters, or let the registry fall through automatically.
Extract from URLs with provider-aware acquisition through Stagehand/Browserbase, OloStep, and Spider.cloud. Render pages, capture HTML tables, fall back when needed.
Quality scoring, model comparison, extraction summaries, cache metadata, operation history, streaming progress, and visualizations: inspect work instead of trusting a black box.
A FastAPI service for product integration, a React dashboard for operators, MCP tools for ChatGPT/OpenAI Apps, and Convex-backed metadata for scheduled jobs and batches.
Kautious Extract ships domain templates, schemas, validators, and connectors for workflows where wrong answers get expensive.
Filing search, sections, XBRL facts, company lookup, and per-filing extraction.
Federal Reserve material, yield curves, reference rates, and auction data.
Corporate actions, earnings, M&A, and market-event extraction.
FINRA and CFPB enforcement workflows.
Sanctions, beneficial ownership, and financial-statement footnote templates.
Email triage and meeting-intelligence templates for analyst workflows.
This audience reads vague security language as a red flag. The security review happened before launch, not after the incident.
Production workflow onboarding
Bring us the documents your current stack cannot handle. If it is a fit, we'll build the extraction path around the real workflow.
Design partners in financial services, compliance, legal, and AI product teams get priority.
