  Unstructured is a document parsing and pre-processing platform that provides
  a REST API for ingesting PDFs, HTML, DOCX, images, and more than 50 other
  file formats, transforming them into clean structured JSON chunks ready for
  RAG pipelines and LLM applications. The platform offers partitioning,
  enrichment, chunking, and embedding capabilities via both a SaaS serverless
  API and self-hosted deployments. Billing is calculated on a per-page basis,
  with a free tier of 15,000 pages, pay-as-you-go at $0.03 per page, and
  custom enterprise pricing. Unstructured also ships Python and JavaScript SDKs,
  an MCP server for AI agent workflows, and 40+ connectors for source and
  destination data systems including S3, Databricks, and vector databases.
