PDFStract - The Extraction and Chunking Layer in Your RAG Pipeline - Available as CLI - WEBUI - API
This tool helps AI engineers and data scientists prepare PDF documents for use in AI applications like chatbots or semantic search. It takes PDF files as input, extracts the text and structure, breaks it into manageable pieces, and converts these pieces into numerical representations (embeddings). This output can then be directly fed into a Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) system or similar AI models.
128 stars. Used by 1 other package. Available on PyPI.
Use this if you need a flexible way to extract, chunk, and embed information from PDFs for your AI applications, allowing you to easily swap between different processing methods.
Not ideal if you only need a simple PDF viewer or editor and don't plan to use the extracted content for advanced AI processing.
