For Agents

Submit a document image or PDF and receive structured field extractions for invoices, receipts, IDs, and custom forms. Supports synchronous predictions for fast paths and asynchronous queues for batch processing.

Install Jentic One Beta

Connect the Mindee OCR API to your agent

Jentic One is a self-hosted execution layer for AI agents. It lets your agent call the Mindee OCR API, or any other public or private API you need. You set the rules, the agent never sees your credentials, and every call is logged.

Two steps, two machines. Install the instance in a safe environment, then register your agent from wherever it runs.

Step 1: Jentic One Host machine

# On the machine that will host your Jentic One instance:
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jentic/jentic-one/main/tools/install.sh | sh

Step 2: Agent machine

# On the machine where your agent runs (keep this separate from the instance):
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jentic/jentic-one/main/tools/install.sh | sh
jentic register       # connects your agent to your Jentic One instance

Jentic One is in public beta. The setup above keeps your agent separate from the instance, which is what you want before using real credentials: an agent running as the same OS user as Jentic One can read its stored keys directly. Just evaluating? A single local install is fine to start. See the secure deployment guide for the tiers.

Capabilities

What an agent can do with Mindee OCR API.

Submit invoices and receipts to /v1/products/{account}/{product}/{version}/predict and receive parsed line items, totals, vendor, and tax fields

Queue large document batches via predict_async and poll job status until extraction completes

Execute multi-step document workflows with /v1/workflows/{workflow_id}/executions to chain classification, extraction, and validation

Use Cases

Patterns agents use Mindee OCR API for, with concrete tasks.

★ Accounts Payable Invoice Capture

Automate invoice intake by submitting supplier PDFs to the Mindee invoice product and receiving structured supplier name, invoice number, line items, tax, and totals. Agents can post extracted fields directly into accounting systems without manual keying. Synchronous predictions return in seconds for low-volume flows; asynchronous queues handle thousands of invoices per hour.

Submit invoice.pdf to /v1/products/mindee/invoices/v4/predict and return supplier_name, invoice_number, total_amount, and line_items as JSON

Receipt Expense Reporting

Extract merchant, date, total, and tax from receipt photos for expense management apps. The receipt product handles thermal prints, photos, and PDFs in over 60 languages, returning parsed fields with confidence scores so agents can flag low-confidence values for human review.

Send receipt.jpg to the receipt product predict endpoint and create an expense entry with merchant, date, and total_amount fields

ID and Passport Verification

Capture name, document number, date of birth, and expiry from passports and national IDs as part of KYC onboarding. Mindee parses MRZ codes and visual zones in a single call, returning structured fields plus crop coordinates so agents can build verification flows without bespoke ML.

Submit passport.jpg to the passport product and verify that the parsed expiry_date is in the future and the surname matches the user record

Agent-Driven Document Workflows

AI agents discover the Mindee API through Jentic by intent (parse a receipt, extract invoice fields). Jentic returns the predict endpoint with its input schema, the agent uploads the document, and parsed fields stream back. The Mindee bearer token stays in your Jentic One instance so the agent never sees the raw secret.

Search Jentic for 'extract invoice data', load the Mindee predict schema, and execute against three queued invoice PDFs

Key Endpoints

12 endpoints — jentic publishes the only available openapi specification for mindee ocr api, keeping it validated and agent-ready.

Why Jentic?

Three things that make agents converge on Jentic-routed access.

Credential isolation

Your Mindee bearer token is stored once, encrypted, by your own Jentic One instance and injected at execution time. It never enters the agent's prompt, logs, or context.

Intent-based discovery

Agents search Jentic by intent such as 'extract invoice data' or 'parse a receipt', and Jentic returns the matching Mindee predict operation with its input schema so the agent calls the right product slug without browsing Mindee documentation.

FAQs

Specific to using Mindee OCR API through Jentic.

Why is there no official OpenAPI spec for Mindee OCR API?

Mindee does not publish an OpenAPI specification. Jentic generates and maintains this spec so that AI agents and developers can call Mindee OCR API via structured tooling. It is validated against the live API and kept up to date. Get started with Jentic One, the self-hosted execution layer.

What authentication does the Mindee OCR API use?

Mindee OCR API uses HTTP bearer token authentication. The token is sent in the Authorization header as `Bearer <token>`. When called through Jentic, the bearer token is stored in your Jentic One instance and injected at execution time so the agent never sees the raw secret.

Can I extract line items from invoices with the Mindee OCR API?

Yes. Submit the invoice file to POST /v1/products/{account}/{product}/{version}/predict using the invoices product slug and Mindee returns parsed line_items, supplier_name, invoice_number, total_amount, and tax fields with per-field confidence scores.

How do I handle large document batches without timing out?

Use POST /v1/products/{account}/{product}/{version}/predict_async to queue the document, then poll GET /v1/products/{account}/{product}/{version}/documents/queue/{job_id} until the job_id transitions to a completed state. The completed response contains the parsed prediction.

How do I improve extraction accuracy on documents Mindee gets wrong?

Send corrected field values to PUT /v1/documents/{document_id}/feedback. Mindee uses these corrections to retrain the underlying models for custom products and surface the corrected values on subsequent predictions of the same document.

How do I extract receipt data through Jentic?

Run `pip install jentic`, then search Jentic for 'parse a receipt'. Jentic returns the Mindee predict operation with its input schema. Load the schema, supply the receipt file as the document field, and execute. Parsed merchant, date, and total fields return as JSON.

Can I limit what my agent is allowed to do with the Mindee OCR API?

Yes. Because you run Jentic One yourself, your own rules decide which Mindee operations and credentials the agent may use. Since Mindee encodes the account, product, and version in the URL path (/v1/products/{account}/{product}/{version}/predict), you can pin the agent to a single product's read-only predict and queue-polling operations. Writes such as submitting field feedback with PUT /v1/documents/{document_id}/feedback are not included unless you explicitly add them.
