1 · Take inTurn anything your users upload into input your model can use. Your AI is only as good as what it reads. The Ingestion Kit makes every document, scan, web page and recording readable, so you ship answers instead of parsers.

The question you arrived with, and the API that answers it.
What is the Ingestion Kit?
The Ingestion Kit is the front door of your AI product. It takes the messy inputs real users send and returns clean text and structure your model, RAG pipeline or agent can work with.
It is the difference between a demo that works on one clean PDF and a product that works on everything your customers upload, from a scanned contract to a recorded call.
How AI products use it
- A legal AI reads contracts that users upload as scans or phone photos.
- A support copilot learns from help-center pages, PDFs and Word files.
- A meeting assistant turns call recordings into text it can summarize.
Why not build it in-house?
Each capability in the Ingestion Kit looks simple to build. The hard part is keeping it accurate, available and up to date once your product depends on it.
- OCRScans arrive skewed, low-resolution and in dozens of languages. Keeping accuracy up means tuning engines, retraining and testing on every new document type your users upload.
- PDF and table extractionEvery PDF generator writes files differently. Multi-column layouts, merged cells and embedded fonts break parsers, and each fix risks breaking another file.
- Web page to MarkdownWebsites change markup, add consent banners and block scrapers. A converter that worked last month quietly returns noise this month.
- Speech to textTranscription needs GPU capacity, model updates and handling for accents, noise and long recordings, all billed whether or not anyone calls it.
Do you run an API that belongs in the Ingestion Kit?
Publish it on ApyHub and put it in front of the teams and AI agents building with the Ingestion Kit. Your API joins the catalog under one subscription, becomes callable through MCP, and earns from every call.
Questions about the Ingestion Kit
What is the ApyHub Ingestion Kit?
The Ingestion Kit is the front door of your AI product. It takes the messy inputs real users send and returns clean text and structure your model, RAG pipeline or agent can work with.
What is a document parsing API?
A document parsing API takes a file such as a PDF, a scanned page or a Word document and returns its content as structured text, tables or Markdown, so software and language models can work with it.
How do I prepare PDFs and web pages for RAG?
Convert them to clean text or Markdown first. Use Extract Text from PDF for digital PDFs, the OCR APIs for scans and images, and Convert HTML to Markdown for web pages, then chunk and embed the result in your retrieval pipeline.
Which OCR API should I use?
AI Image OCR reads text from images and scans. Advanced Image OCR also returns word-level bounding boxes and confidence scores, which helps when you need to highlight or cite where text came from.
Can the Ingestion Kit transcribe audio and video?
Yes. Convert Speech to Text transcribes audio, AI Video Transcriber turns video into text, and AI Audio Language Detection tells you which language is spoken before you transcribe.
Can I test Ingestion Kit APIs before integrating them?
Yes. Every API has a Try it panel on its service page. Your key is filled in, you send a real request and see the actual response in your browser before you write any code.
Can AI agents use the Ingestion Kit?
Yes. Every endpoint is MCP-ready. Connect ApyHub MCP to Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Mistral Le Chat or any MCP-compatible agent, and your agent can discover and call these APIs directly.
How is it priced?
Every kit sits under one subscription, paid in atoms, ApyHub's usage unit. Every call shows its cost, and the free Starter plan needs no card.
