Table, Chart & Form Extractor

Extract structured data from tables, charts, and forms in document images using AI vision analysis.

Overview

This Actor analyzes document images and automatically extracts:

• Tables — Column headers, rows, and captions as structured arrays
• Charts — Chart type, title, axis labels, data points, and summaries
• Forms — Field names, values, and field types (text, number, date, checkbox, select)

Perfect for processing invoices, financial reports, surveys, datasheets, data visualizations, and application forms.

Features

• Local AI Processing — Uses Qwen2.5-VL vision model running locally (no cloud APIs)
• Batch Processing — Process up to 20 images per run
• Structured Output — JSON format with confidence scores
• Error Handling — Graceful failures with detailed error codes
• Production Ready — Timeout protection, validation, retry logic
