When to use Node.js
Node.js is a natural fit for customer-facing upload portals, SaaS products, workflow APIs, serverless functions, and webhook receivers.
Production notes
Keep uploads out of the browser when documents are sensitive, sign webhook endpoints, store job IDs idempotently, and expose review state to users when fields need attention.
import { Cogneris } from "@cogneris/sdk";
const client = new Cogneris({ apiKey: process.env.COGNERIS_API_KEY });
const job = await client.extraction.createAsync({
template: "bank_statement",
file: "./statement.pdf",
webhookUrl: "https://app.example.com/webhooks/cogneris-events"
});
console.log(job.id);Extract
Turn PDFs, scans, photos, and document packets into structured records.
Validate
Apply confidence thresholds, business rules, and cross-document checks.
Route
Send clean results downstream and uncertain fields to review queues.
