Ninjadoc API to extract data with coordinates from documents

You know that moment when you're building an app and need to extract specific data from documents...but you also need the exact pixel coordinates where that data lives? And then you realize most OCR APIs give you text but no spatial context? Or if they do, you need to train the model otherwise it won't understand what your document is?

Yeah. Been there.

That's why we built Ninjadoc AI - specifically for developers who need both the data AND the coordinates from any document type.

Instead of wrestling with complex computer vision libraries or training your own models, you just visually define what you want to extract. Think of it like creating a JSON schema, but by drawing boxes on your document.

Our API returns structured data with exact bounding box coordinates for every field. No template matching. No brittle regex parsing. No "wait, where exactly was this field located again?"

Developers have told us it's a game-changer for building document annotation tools, automated form processing, or any app that needs spatial awareness of document content.

The best part? Zero setup. Just POST your document, define your schema visually, and get back clean JSON with coordinates.

Works with invoices, contracts, forms, receipts, medical records - basically any document where you need to know both WHAT the data is and WHERE it lives.

Would love to hear from fellow devs! https://ninjadoc.ai

Interesting… but this already exists. Mathpix has been doing structured PDF/image extraction with clean JSON (plus coordinates, tables, math, etc.) for years - no training or templates needed.
