Mindee is a document processing API company founded in 2018 and headquartered in Paris, France. The company was co-founded by Jonathan Grandperrin and Olivier Jousselin, and focuses on automating the extraction of structured data from unstructured documents using machine learning.
Mindee's core product is an API suite that parses documents including invoices, receipts, passports, driver's licenses, and custom document types. Developers integrate the APIs into their applications to automate data capture workflows. The platform offers both pre-built models for common document types and a custom document training tool called DocTI, allowing businesses to build extraction models for proprietary document formats. Customers span fintech, accounting software, and enterprise workflow automation sectors.
The company raised a Series A round, bringing total disclosed funding to approximately $8.9 million. Mindee has grown its developer community and maintains open-source client libraries across multiple programming languages, including Python, Node.js, Ruby, and Java, available through its GitHub organization.

Who Mindee competes with, and how they differ.
Veryfi is Mindee's closest direct rival: also an API-first OCR platform for receipts, invoices, and IDs aimed at developers, but leans harder into pre-built expense/mileage-tracking apps and on-premise/self-hosted deployment for regulated industries rather than staying a pure extraction API.
1 product reviewed on TopReviewedNanonets covers the same invoice/receipt/ID extraction ground via API, but layers a no-code workflow builder on top of its OCR models for business users, versus Mindee's SDK-first, developer-only entry point.
1 product reviewed on TopReviewedKlippa (Netherlands) targets the same document-extraction use cases via API but bundles OCR into a broader expense-management and mobile document-scanning app suite, competing more on the end-user app than the raw API.
1 product reviewed on TopReviewedRossum focuses on accounts-payable automation for enterprise finance teams with a no-code UI and human-in-the-loop validation layer, competing on turnkey invoice processing rather than Mindee's developer-first raw API.
1 product reviewed on TopReviewedABBYY is the legacy enterprise IDP incumbent -- a decades-old OCR engine repackaged as the low-code Vantage platform, competing for large enterprise IT contracts rather than Mindee's API-led, self-serve developer go-to-market.
