pdf.co is a very easy to use, practical and fast tool. It facilitates the automation of processes that would otherwise be very tedious. It will allow me to increase productivity and there is very little margin for error, so I find it particularly reliable. After a slight learning curve, I have been able to quickly process over 400 revised documents. I love how easy it is to generate templates for different types of suppliers. I use it in workflows with Make.com and find it an almost perfect match! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One pdf file apparently had a hidden special character, the Spanish ñ, but in the original document it looked like an n (without the ñ).

Apparently pdf.co transcribed the special character in a hidden way and I had a hard time seeing where the error was in the workflow between the pdf.co module and the Make data store. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

PDF.co delivers lightning-fast conversions and extractions, even on massive batches, with OCR that deciphers the blurriest scans as if they were crystal-clear. The API is as straightforward as a pilot’s pre-flight checklist—clear, reliable, and quick to integrate. Its clean, intuitive interface means I get complex tasks done in three clicks or less, and support responds almost before I’ve finished my coffee. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Advanced AI-driven automation features—such as predictive tagging and workflow suggestions—are still in early access and occasionally need manual tweaks. Processing exceptionally large jobs can introduce minor delays, but splitting them into smaller segments is a simple workaround. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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 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.
