Our Verdict

Google Document AI brings world-class ML models to document extraction. Accuracy is excellent — nearly matching Lido in our benchmarks. But it's an API-first platform that requires significant engineering effort to operationalize. You'll need GCP expertise, pipeline orchestration, and custom UI development.
