  LlamaParse is an enterprise document parsing and AI pipeline platform from LlamaIndex that converts
  complex PDFs, Office files, and 130+ document formats into LLM-ready structured outputs. The platform
  offers six composable products under a single API key: Parse (agentic OCR), Extract (structured data
  extraction), Classify, Split, Sheets, and Index. Parse supports tier-based processing from fast and
  cost-effective modes to advanced agentic and agentic-plus tiers that preserve tables, figures, and
  layout for high-fidelity RAG and document AI workflows. Developers access the platform through Python
  and TypeScript SDKs or directly via the LlamaCloud REST API, with EU-region hosting available.
