Building CiteLLM, an API that extracts structured data from PDFs and returns exact source locations for every field.

There's also a widget so you can add click-to-verify to your own app in a few lines of code.

Click any value, jump straight to the highlighted source in the PDF.

Working on CiteLLM, an API that extracts structured data from PDFs and returns citations for each field (page + coordinates + source snippet + confidence).

Instead of blindly trusting the LLM, you can verify every value by linking it back to its exact location in the original PDF.

Every extracted field comes with a precise citation back to the source document (page + snippet + bounding box + confidence score) so reviewers can verify where each value came from.

Hallucinations get flagged automatically because there's no supporting text in the source.

The goal is to make HITL fast and not have reviewers read through the whole document.

I've been working on this problem with https://citellm.com, specifically for PDFs.

Instead of relying on the LLM answer alone, each extracted field links to its source in the original document (page number + highlighted snippet + confidence score).

Checking any claim becomes simple: click and see the exact source.

I built it because I wanted fast search and filters for my Evernote archive (ENEX) so I could drill down and surface exactly what I was looking for.

It can also search inside PDFs and jump directly to the matching page with highlights.

Why try another app when there's so many PDF to Excel converters? It is: - Faster - More convenient - More accurate than other converters (including Excel's Power Query).

Feel free to test it with complex tables (like the ones found in financial documents).
