OCR Scanned PDFs by Asking Claude
That folder of scans — old leases, signed contracts, photographed paperwork — becomes searchable conversationally: Claude checks the text layer, runs the OCR job through the Apdf MCP tools, and answers questions from the recovered text with page-level receipts.
Extract Text from Scanned Invoices for Automated Data Entry
Automate data entry from scanned invoices and receipts using Node.js and the Apdf OCR Read API. Extract vendor names, invoice numbers, and totals from image-based PDFs and feed them directly into your accounting system.
Your code made the PDF.
Then it went dark.
Opened, read, re-read, dropped on page 4 — you never see any of it. Share the PDFs you generate through Apdf recipient links, and every signal becomes something you can act on: ping Slack, update the CRM, let an agent follow up. Same account, same API token, one more call.
