Reducto develops software that converts complex documents such as PDFs, scanned files, and tables into structured data usable by AI systems and large language models. The company was founded in 2021 and is headquartered in San Francisco, California.
The company's platform focuses on document parsing and extraction tasks, including handling tables, charts, and multi-column layouts that typically pose challenges for traditional optical character recognition and text-extraction tools. Its product is used by AI teams building retrieval-augmented generation systems and other document-heavy applications that require accurate structured output from unstructured files.
Reducto has raised venture funding from investors including Benchmark and other technology-focused firms across multiple funding rounds. The company has grown its customer base among AI-focused enterprises since its founding.

Who Reducto competes with, and how they differ.
Open-source-rooted ETL pipeline for unstructured data with a broad connector ecosystem across dozens of file types and destinations, positioned as infrastructure to feed vector databases and LLM pipelines, versus Reducto's narrower focus on high-accuracy parsing of complex tables and forms via a paid API and Studio workspace.
1 product reviewed on TopReviewedLlamaParse is bundled inside the broader LlamaIndex RAG/agent framework and priced on a page-credit model aimed at developers building retrieval pipelines, while Reducto sells a standalone parsing/extraction API and no-code Studio aimed at enterprise accuracy on dense financial and legal documents.
1 product reviewed on TopReviewedInstabase is an enterprise IDP platform built around its own fine-tuned foundation models and a low-code app-building studio sold to large regulated enterprises, competing with Reducto for the same Fortune 10 document-automation budgets but with a heavier, more customizable deployment model.
1 product reviewed on TopReviewedHyperscience sells a mature, on-prem-capable intelligent document processing platform to large regulated enterprises (insurance, banking, government) with human-in-the-loop review workflows, a heavier and more compliance-oriented product than Reducto's API-first, LLM-native parsing platform.
1 product reviewed on TopReviewedMindee focuses on pre-built, industry-specific extraction APIs (invoices, receipts, IDs) priced per document, a narrower and more templated approach than Reducto's general-purpose ingestion API built for arbitrary complex documents feeding LLM pipelines.
