Hi HN — I’m building Docpose.cloud (online file conversion + API).

We found that getting to accuracy that is reliable enough for automation is challenging. Dense documents (e.g., lots of tables or line items) are even harder, and these are the most valuable to automate. After talking to other teams and developers, we…
