Instantly Convert PDFs to Structured JSON with JSONIFY

I’m excited to share JsonifyPDF, a fully open source project that converts PDF documents into structured JSON data using AI-powered extraction.

Live Project:
Frontend Demo: UI
Backend API: API

What It Does:
Jsonify PDF enables developers and businesses to easily extract structured data from invoices, forms, reports, and other PDFs through a simple REST API.

Features:

  • Upload PDF files or specify publicly accessible PDF URLs.
  • Receive clean, well-structured JSON outputs.
  • Built with FastAPI backend and React frontend.
  • Uses Gemini AI API for advanced LLM-powered parsing.
  • Open source with no freemium limits; freely deploy or extend.

USE CASES:

  1. Autofill Forms: Automatically populate web/mobile forms with data extracted from complex PDF forms, speeding up onboarding and minimizing manual entry errors.

  2. Invoice Data Extraction: Extract critical invoice information—amounts, dates, line items—from PDFs into JSON format for seamless integration into accounting and ERP systems.

  3. Document Automation: Convert contracts, reports, receipts, and other official PDFs into structured data to automate workflows, approvals, and record keeping.

  4. Analytics & Data Enrichment: Use JSON outputs to feed business intelligence dashboards, enrich databases, and create actionable analytics for better decision-making
