docling
A Python library for parsing diverse document formats into structured data, optimized for integration with generative AI applications.
What is docling?
Docling is a Python library that converts documents from various formats—such as PDFs, Office files, images, and audio—into structured, machine-readable data. It solves the problem of preparing unstructured documents for use with generative AI models by extracting text, layout, tables, and other elements into a unified format.
Developers and data scientists building AI applications that need to process and understand documents, especially those working with RAG pipelines, agentic AI, or knowledge management systems.
Developers choose Docling for its extensive format support, advanced PDF understanding, and seamless integrations with popular AI frameworks, all while offering local execution for data privacy and security.
