The API’s key features are engineered for flexibility and precision. Developers can define summaries with a target word count and choose from a comprehensive range of output formats, including overview, abstract, highlight, action items, outline, bullet points, numbered list, table of contents, and question-answer. Output can be delivered as structured Markdown—perfect for web rendering, further analysis with LLMs, and indexing—or as plain text for direct ingestion into databases. Furthermore, the tool supports Page Range Selection for targeted analysis and offers Flexible Delivery via JSON response or downloadable files. This scalability makes it the ideal intelligent core for any high-throughput document analysis platform. Developers can build a scalable, AI-driven document analysis platform that automates document review across any industry. For example, teams such as legal and compliance can use the tool to optimize legal discovery with AI summaries of contracts, pleadings, and reports, drastically reducing hours of manual analysis.

“The Summarize PDF API represents a critical evolution in how developers handle document intelligence,” said Eric Shore, Chief Innovation Officer at pdfRest. “We are moving beyond simple data extraction to true insight generation. By integrating advanced AI while maintaining our commitment to reliable, structured PDF processing, we are empowering our users to automate complex document review cycles, drastically reduce manual analysis hours, and build more intelligent, responsive platforms.”

Developers can begin leveraging the new Summarize PDF API immediately by signing up for a free Starter account to test and validate solutions. The API Lab offers direct browser access for testing, allowing users to upload files, choose parameters, and generate copyable code for quick integration.
