Reducto is a document-parsing API built specifically for the documents that break generic OCR — dense tables, scanned forms, multi-column layouts, embedded charts and math. It uses a multi-pass pipeline combining OCR with vision-language models, and backs its accuracy claims with published benchmarks (RD-TableBench, Reducto-Eval) rather than asking you to take its word for it. Funding has been aggressive: a $24.5M Series A in April 2025 led by Benchmark, followed by a $75M Series B in October 2025 led by Andreessen Horowitz, with monthly processing volume reportedly growing 6x in between.
It's infrastructure, not an end-user tool — you're integrating an API into a document pipeline, not opening an app. Pricing starts around $0.015/page with 15,000 free credits, cheap for simple pages but worth modeling at real document mix and volume. Public third-party reviews are still thin; most of the accuracy evidence so far comes from Reducto's own published benchmarks and case studies.
What people say
Reducto's pitch is accuracy on the documents that trip up commodity OCR and cloud document-AI services — nested tables, scanned forms, multi-column financial statements, and documents mixing text with charts and equations. The company backs that with open benchmarks: RD-TableBench specifically scores table extraction from PDFs and images, and Reducto-Eval compares Reducto's output against standard OCR for RAG retrieval quality, both published on GitHub so the comparisons are at least reproducible rather than pure marketing copy.
Independent third-party review coverage is genuinely thin. As of early 2026, Reducto has minimal public reviews on G2, in contrast to competitors like DocuPipe, which carries a 4.9/5 rating from a larger base of verified reviewers. That's not unusual for a two-year-old company selling B2B API access rather than a self-serve SaaS product, but it means most of what's publicly known about real-world accuracy comes from Reducto's own case studies rather than a broad base of independent reviewers. The company cites specific client numbers: 99.24% extraction accuracy on real clinical patient records for one healthcare customer, and up to 16x faster insurance-claim reviews with better auditability for another — figures worth treating as vendor-reported until corroborated elsewhere.
What's easier to verify independently is the funding trajectory. Reducto closed a $24.5M Series A in April 2025 (led by Benchmark, joined by First Round Capital, BoxGroup and Y Combinator), then a $75M Series B just five months later in October 2025 led by Andreessen Horowitz, taking total funding to $108M. The company said monthly processing volume grew more than 6x between the two rounds, approaching a billion pages processed — fast growth for a document-parsing vendor, and a sign enterprise buyers are switching over from Google Document AI or Azure Document Intelligence, the two competitors Reducto benchmarks itself against most directly on its own site.
For teams evaluating it: the free 15,000-credit allowance is enough to test real documents before committing, credits are cheaper for pages Reducto's own classifier judges "simple," and Growth/Enterprise tiers add zero-data-retention agreements, EU/AU data residency, and VPC/on-prem deployment for regulated industries. The gap to watch is the same one for most fast-scaling API vendors: benchmark numbers you can check yourself (RD-TableBench, Reducto-Eval) are more trustworthy than benchmark numbers you can't.
