About Extend

Extend is document processing infrastructure for AI agents, with APIs to parse, extract, classify, split and edit documents at 99%+ accuracy. A multi-pass review agent flags uncertain outputs before production, and modes trade off latency, cost and accuracy per processor. Teams iterate on schemas and run evaluations in its Studio, orchestrate multi-step document workflows, and deploy in Extend's US or EU cloud or their own VPC.
