Deterministic AI output for document extraction

Most AI tools generate best-effort text. Octane is different: you define the exact structure and constraints up front, and the system guarantees every output conforms — no extra fields, no missing columns, no format drift.

  • Exact schema
    Tables, nested fields, types.
  • Hard constraints
    Enums, bounds, patterns, required fields.
  • Machine-reliable
    Safe to pipe into downstream systems.
  • No cleanup
    No regex, retries, or validators.
Define what the model can return
Schema + constraints → guaranteed output.

Stop prompting for structure

This is not “better prompting.” It’s control. You define what the model is allowed to return — and we enforce it.

Generic AI output
Free-form text that can drift and break pipelines.
“I found the key terms. The effective date is likely in late Q3… Here’s a summary…”
  • Missing fields, extra prose, inconsistent keys.
  • Post-processing, validation, and retry loops.
  • Best-effort formatting, not a guarantee.
Octane output
Guaranteed to match your schema and constraints.

  "effective_date": "2025-10-01",
  "status": "REVIEW",
  "risk_level": "MEDIUM",
  "risk_score": 7,
  "currency": "USD"
}
  • Exact fields and types — always present.
  • Enums, bounds, patterns — enforced.
  • Safe to send to databases and workflows.
Exact output schema
Define the structure upfront — not after the fact.

Tables, columns, nested objects, field names, and types.

Instead of asking an AI how to respond, you define what it is allowed to return.

Hard constraints per field
Prevent out-of-range values and invalid formats.

Required vs optional fields, nullable-but-present rules, strict data types — enforced at generation time.

The model cannot hallucinate structure or values outside these rules.

Guaranteed machine-consumable output
Build reliable automations on top of extraction.
  • 100% predictable structure
  • Safe to load into databases and spreadsheets
  • No regex cleanup or retry loops

Example: define constraints once, reuse everywhere

Create a schema in the UI, run extraction on one or many documents, and receive output that matches your contract every time.

  "status": "REVIEW",
  "confidence": 0.91,
  "due_date": null
}

No units in numeric fields. No missing keys. No unexpected text. Your schema is the contract.

How it works

Upload documents
PDFs, spreadsheets, docs — one or many.
Define structure
Build the schema in the UI.
Add constraints
Enums, bounds, patterns, required fields.
Run extraction
Receive guaranteed structured data.

Built for real workflows

Use Octane anywhere you need reliable, machine-consumable structure from messy documents.
