What we liked most about PDF.co is its ability to automatically turn poorly scanned or unstructured PDFs into fully searchable documents ready for data extraction — including OCR in Portuguese. The API integration is simple, reliable, and fast, which allowed us to fully automate our document processing workflows without compromising quality. The documentation is clear, and the responses are consistent, even in more complex automation flows like N8N. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The only initial challenge was understanding the variety of available endpoints and which one best fit each use case — especially for newcomers to automation. It would also be great to see more examples or tutorials in languages other than English. Other than that, the experience has been excellent, and the service truly delivers what it promises.

I've tried to use many platforms including AI once, but I always come back to pdf.co just because pdf is a thing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Picking the right endpoint in the API was not always easy, but it's also because I was not sure how I wanted to structure my automation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I had been thinking about this automation for a while but wasnt sure if PDF extraction would work that well. I was positively surprised, how easy it was. I used PDF.co with Make.com to automate timesheet processing, and it has worked really well. My setup pulls timesheets from emails, extracts the relevant info using PDF.co, and sends it to Xero for invoicing. The data extraction is accurate, and it was surprisingly easy to set up.

What I like most is how smoothly it integrates with Make.com—it just works without needing complicated configurations. This has saved me a ton of time compared to manually entering data. If you need a reliable way to extract data from PDFs, I’d definitely recommend PDF.co. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

With the free version, it did let me test with uploaded document but it would not let me connect via Make.com. It did allow testing with uploaded docs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I've tried a few APIs to handle PDFs before, and PDF.co is the best one. I'm developing an N8N workflow to process many unstructured PDFs, and the document parser from PDF.co is by far the most effective.

I highly recommend this software.

The API functions are straightforward, and N8N already includes PDF.co nodes, making it really easy to integrate into your workflow. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It does have a cost. You can find cheaper options on the market, but I've tested some of them and PDF.co is still worth the investment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I absolutely love the PDF Parser tool from PDF.co — it's been a game-changer for my workflow. What used to take hours of manually copying and pasting data from PDFs now takes just minutes. The parser is incredibly accurate, even with complex or inconsistent layouts, and it’s simplified a process that was previously tedious and time-consuming.

The API is also very straightforward to use and set up. We integrated it with our CRM to automatically parse incoming documents and map the extracted data back into the relevant fields. It’s seamless and very efficient, saving us both time and effort.

Not only has it increased productivity, but the pricing is also very reasonable for the value it provides. PDF.co has become an essential tool in our operations — reliable, fast, and cost-effective. Highly recommended for any team needing accurate PDF data extraction. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There is nothing to dislike about this tool Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It was super-easy to integrate PDF.co with Loveable on a project where people upload PDFs. The other methods I was using to extract data from the PDFs weren't working, but as soon as I plugged in the PDF.co API, it worked.

In the past day, I've processed 50+ PDF docs without a problem. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I think it is a little expensive compared to the cost of most APIs, but it fulfills a function I can't get anywhere else. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I’ve been using the PDF.co API, mainly for converting PDFs to images, and I’ve been very satisfied with its performance. The API documentation is clear and easy to follow, which made integration into my workflow straightforward—even for someone who isn’t a hardcore developer.

The PDF to Image converter works exactly as promised. I’ve converted a variety of PDF documents, from simple single pages to larger, multi-page files. The resulting images are high quality, and the process is fast—even when batch processing multiple files. The API consistently returns accurate results, maintaining the original formatting and clarity of the PDFs in the output images. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The API rate limits are fair, but if you have a high-volume use case, you might need to plan your workflow or upgrade your subscription Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I like most about pdf.co is that you can add documents of different formats and convert them to pdf format and merge them In a single file. It's super smart and easy Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I have not been able to find integrations for Microsoft to do the same with files scattered in different folders or tables. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It simply the best choices after comparing with the similar products out there in the market. By comparing the features and prices, it gives the most value out of all. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

At first it seems to be overvalued comparing to other similar products cause the it seems to use high credits. But, after calculation, it turns out to be the most value for money. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Their UI and documentation were extremely easy to navigate. Pricing is very straight forward. It's integrated with Zapier and Make but I ended up using the direct API which was just as easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The credits can be a bit deceiving but I understand why. For example, I had one doc I needed to convert to a PDF and the credits were 9 but it was only 1 page. Then I had one that was significantly bigger and the credits for that one job were over 300. Then every endpoint you use has its own credit amount. They do have a calculator but you really don't know till you test and finalize it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
