Turn energy and utility documents into structured data.
DocLD helps utilities, grid operators, and energy teams process high-volume, multi-format documents where precision matters. Parse meter reads, grid reports, permits, work orders, and contracts with one API — layout-aware extraction, OCR for scans, and citation-ready chunks for RAG and compliance.
Meter reads and billing
Scanned meter sheets, PDF bills, and usage reports.
Meter reads, consumption reports, and utility bills often arrive as scanned sheets, PDFs, or mixed-format exports. DocLD parses these with layout-aware extraction and VLM-based OCR, so you get structured usage data and table content for billing systems, analytics, and demand forecasting.
Use the same Parse API for PDFs, images, and spreadsheets; push extracted values into your billing or CRM without format-specific integrations.
Grid and asset documentation
Grid reports, inspection PDFs, and asset records.
Grid reports, inspection documents, and asset records combine text, tables, and diagrams where critical data lives in structured and unstructured sections. DocLD parses PDFs and images with layout-aware extraction so you get clean text and table structure for RAG, maintenance workflows, and asset management systems.
Parse returns chunks with page and bounding-box context so you can build search and retrieval that cites back to the exact report or section.
Permits and regulatory
Permits, environmental reports, and compliance docs.
Permits, environmental reports, and regulatory submissions require linking every output back to its source. DocLD Parse returns chunks with page ranges and optional bounding boxes; Extract can pull structured fields with citations. Build RAG and agent flows that show where each answer came from for audit trails and regulatory review.
Run parsing and extraction via API in your own environment, with configurable presets and webhooks for batch intake.
Field work orders and tickets
Work orders, tickets, and handwritten field forms.
Field work orders, service tickets, and inspection forms often arrive as scans or mixed handwriting and print. DocLD uses VLM-based OCR with 50+ languages and table extraction so you can ingest mixed-format documents through one API. Extract structured fields for dispatch, CRM, and asset tracking.
Enable agentic mode for better accuracy on complex forms and handwritten fields.
Contracts and tariffs
Supply contracts, tariff sheets, and rate schedules.
Supply contracts, tariff documents, and rate schedules can run to hundreds of pages with terms, rates, and conditions that must be retrievable and traceable. DocLD supports files up to 100MB with semantic, fixed-size, or page-based chunking so you can tune for RAG quality and context windows.
Use the Extract API with schemas to pull specific fields (e.g. rates, dates, terms) with citations back to the source for compliance and contract management.
