JSON that matches your workflow
Generic OCR text still leaves your team with parsing work. Cogneris converts documents into predictable JSON objects: top-level fields, nested tables, validation outcomes, source evidence, and review state.
{
"document_type": "bank_statement",
"account_holder": { "value": "Northwind LLC", "confidence": 0.98 },
"transactions": [{ "date": "2026-05-14", "amount": -248.50 }],
"validation": { "status": "review_required" }
}Where documents-to-JSON APIs are useful
Use this pattern for underwriting packets, invoice ingestion, KYC onboarding, claims, contracts, tax documents, bank statements, payroll files, and any workflow where software needs structured data instead of a PDF attachment.
Document-to-JSON API FAQ
Can I convert documents to JSON with my own schema?
Yes. Cogneris can use shipped templates or an inline schema so PDFs, scans, and packets return JSON shaped for your application.
Can JSON output include confidence scores and citations?
Yes. JSON fields can include values, confidence scores, citations, page references, bounding boxes, validation status, and review state.
Can document-to-JSON jobs run asynchronously?
Yes. Long documents and batches can run asynchronously with signed webhook callbacks once processing finishes.
What file types can be converted to JSON?
Cogneris supports native PDFs, scanned PDFs, images, and document packets for workflows such as invoices, KYC, claims, contracts, and bank statements.
