Closed reading documents models, tools and agents

5 in the catalogue today, and the list grows as the market does. Every one with what it costs, who sells it and where it stands.

Models that read documents — scans, photographs of pages, forms, tables — and return text or structure. The interesting difference between them is not whether they can read a clean page, which they all can, but what they do with a table, a stamp, a handwritten margin or a column that breaks across pages. Several are priced per page rather than per token, which makes them easy to budget and hard to compare with the rest.

Models whose weights are not published and which are bought through somebody's API. You get the maker's infrastructure, their scale and their uptime, and no way to run the thing yourself or to keep it if it is withdrawn. Most of the strongest models are here, so this is less a choice than a fact about the market; the choice is which seller you buy the same model from, and the catalogue holds their prices side by side.
