Turn media and entertainment documents into structured data.
DocLD helps studios, production companies, and legal teams process high-volume, multi-format documents where precision matters. Parse scripts, contracts, rights agreements, and production docs with one API — layout-aware extraction, OCR for scans, and citation-ready chunks for RAG and legal review.
Scripts and treatments
Scripts, treatments, and pitch documents mix narrative with structure and revisions.
Scripts, treatments, and pitch documents combine dense narrative with scene headings, character blocks, and revision history. DocLD parses PDFs and documents with layout-aware extraction so you get clean text and structure — ready for semantic chunking and retrieval. Build RAG and agent flows that cite back to the exact scene or beat for development, coverage, and search.
Parse returns chunks with page and bounding-box context so your pipelines stay traceable for rights and clearance.
Rights and contracts
Option agreements, talent contracts, and licensing deals need traceable terms.
Option agreements, talent contracts, and licensing deals pack critical terms, dates, and parties into dense legal language. DocLD Parse returns chunks with page ranges and optional bounding boxes; Extract can pull structured fields — option periods, fees, grant of rights — with citations. Build RAG and agent flows that show where each clause came from for deal memos and legal review.
Run parsing and extraction via API in your own environment, with configurable presets and webhooks for batch contract intake.
Subtitles and localization
Subtitle files, cue sheets, and translated scripts in mixed formats.
Subtitle files, cue sheets, and translated scripts arrive as SRT, PDF, spreadsheets, and Office documents. DocLD supports PDF, images, CSV, XLSX, and related formats with structured extraction so you get clean dialogue, timecodes, and metadata for localization pipelines and compliance (e.g. caption quality, regional requirements).
Use the same Parse API for subtitles as for scripts and contracts; switch formats without changing your pipeline.
Production and clearance
Call sheets, clearance reports, and chain-of-title documents.
Call sheets, clearance reports, and chain-of-title documents combine tables, dates, and legal assertions where accuracy matters. DocLD parses PDFs and images with layout-aware extraction and optional agentic OCR, so you get text and table structure for production systems and legal review. Extract specific fields (dates, parties, rights) with citations back to the source.
Use the Extract API with schemas to pull clearance status, talent names, and rights granted with audit-ready references.
Long-form and archives
Script bibles, long treatments, and archive documents span hundreds of pages.
Script bibles, long treatments, and archive documents can run to hundreds of pages, with narrative and metadata that must be preserved and retrievable. 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 async Parse endpoint and webhooks for large documents and batch jobs — no need to block on synchronous responses when processing archives or development bibles.
