short_description: Receipts + invoices to validated JSON, GPT-5 nano
Structured Data Extraction Service
Multi-domain document extraction β turn invoices, receipts, and SEC filings into schema-validated JSON with confidence scoring, multi-model benchmarking, and quantified accuracy.
What this does
Upload any invoice, receipt, or SEC filing (10-K / 10-Q). Get back clean, validated JSON matching a Pydantic schema β plus a per-field confidence score, a cost breakdown, and latency metrics.

Why this project exists
Enterprise doc extraction is one of the highest-demand LLM use cases in 2026. This repo demonstrates the production skills that hiring managers screen for:
- Schema-driven extraction with OpenAI structured outputs + Pydantic validation
- Vision-language handling for scanned/image PDFs (GPT-5 nano vision)
- Long-document handling for 10-K filings β regex section chunker slices Items 1A + 8 out of ~150K-token documents to hit $0.06/doc (would've been ~$0.60/doc whole-doc)
- Streaming + async batch API β
POST /extract/streamemits Server-Sent Events for progress + result;POST /extract/batchfans up to 5 concurrent extractions across N documents with per-item status tracking - Fine-tuning experiment β full pipeline (data prep β OpenAI job launch β side-by-side eval) built and reproducible; sample-scale run shipped, real-scale run gated on pulling the SROIE/CORD training splits
- Multi-model benchmarking β empirically compared gpt-5-nano vs gpt-5-mini vs gpt-5 on the same 10-record eval; nano is Pareto-optimal (micro F1 0.896 at $0.012/doc)
- Evaluation harness with precision / recall / F1 on public ground truth (SROIE, CORD)
- Cost + latency observability β every extraction logs tokens and $
- Full-stack: FastAPI backend, React + Motion + R3F UI, Docker, GitHub Actions CI
- CI/CD with GitHub Actions running tests + lint on every push
Live demo
The full stack is on Hugging Face Spaces:
huggingface.co/spaces/aditya0103/structured-data-extractor β always-on, free tier
Locally: docker compose up --build after cloning; hit http://localhost:5173.
Deploy your own to HF Spaces
- Create a new HF Space β Docker SDK, blank template.
- Add
OPENAI_API_KEYunder Settings β Repository secrets. - Point the Space at this repo (or push a fork). HF reads the YAML frontmatter
at the top of this README (
sdk: docker,app_port: 7860), builds the rootDockerfile, and exposes it on your Space URL. First build ~5-8 min; every redeploy ~2-3 min thanks to layer caching.
Quantified results
Live evaluation on gpt-5-nano with reasoning_effort="minimal". 10 receipt
records derived from public SROIE + CORD ground truth. Reports (per-record CSV,
JSON summary, markdown) land in evaluation/reports/<timestamp>/ after each run.
| Domain | Dataset (n=) | Micro F1 | Macro F1 | Doc Exact | Cost / doc | Mean Latency |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Receipts | SROIE (5) | 0.938 | 1.000 | 0.20 | $0.012 | 6.3 s |
| Receipts | CORD (5) | 0.914 | 0.839 | 0.80 | $0.012 | 8.2 s |
| Filings | SEC 10-K (n=5) | 0.560 | 0.584 | 0.00 | $0.063 | 6.4 s |
Read the numbers:
- Micro F1 β 0.92 across both datasets β the model gets ~92% of individual fields correct on ground-truth-derived text.
- Doc-level exact match is stricter (100% of fields right on one doc) and swings by dataset: CORD receipts (short, simple line items) hit 0.80; SROIE (freer-form Malaysian/Singaporean receipts with more optional fields) hits 0.20 β a single missing field kills the metric on those.
- $0.012 / doc is the reasoning-tokens-included cost at
reasoning_effort=minimal. Default (non-minimal) reasoning was $0.042 / doc, 30 s / doc β the minimal flag is a ~3.5Γ cost cut and ~4Γ latency cut with no measured quality loss on this schema. - Total spend for a full run: ~$0.12 β cheap enough to re-run on every significant prompt/schema change.
Why the 10-K F1 is lower than the receipt F1 β this is a harder task and the number reflects that honestly:
- Unit-of-measure normalization. 10-K income statements are printed
"in millions" or "in thousands." The extractor has to multiply back to
absolute dollars. When it misses the header, a $391B revenue lands as $391K
in the output β a 1,000,000Γ miss that reads as
Falseon the money comparator. - Multi-year column selection. Every 10-K shows the most recent fiscal year alongside 1-2 prior years side-by-side. Picking the wrong column produces a plausible-but-wrong number.
- Debt aggregation.
total_debt= short-term + long-term borrowings, which the model must sum. Ground truth is computed the same way from XBRL, so a model that reports "long-term debt" alone counts as a miss. - Risk factors don't score. Auto-generated ground truth left
top_risk_factorsempty (there's no canonical source). So the F1 you see is effectively "cover + financials" only. Qualitative risk-factor eval is a v2.2 follow-up. - Zero extraction errors on all 5 filings β the section chunker + prompt wiring is stable. What's missing is prompt tuning against the specific failure modes above, which is where the next 15-20 F1 points live.
v2.2 β a real diagnose β try β measure loop
The per-field table above told me the money fields were the drag. I hypothesized that most of the misses came from the model ignoring "(In millions)" scale headers, and pushed three targeted fixes into v2.2:
- Prompt reinforcement. Added a workflow section with four worked examples
(Apple, Walmart, a mid-cap in thousands, a small filer in absolute dollars)
and an explicit "before finalizing, check the number is physically plausible"
step. See
src/extractors/prompts.py::SYSTEM_PROMPT_FILING. - Ground-truth builder expansion.
build_filings_gt.pyFIN_MAP got new XBRL concept fallbacks so bank + insurance filers (JPM specifically) get realtotal_debtandtotal_equityviaDeposits,LongTermBorrowings, andStockholdersEquityIncludingPortionAttributableToNoncontrollingInterest. - Cover-field backfill. Pulled
exchangeandstate_of_incorporationinto the sidecar from SEC's submissions feed so those cover fields are no longer support=0 in the eval.
What the numbers said back:
| Field | v2.1 F1 | v2.2 F1 | Verdict |
|---|---|---|---|
financials.revenue |
0.250 | 0.500 | β prompt worked β precision 0.33β0.67 |
financials.total_equity |
0.000 | 0.286 | β FIN_MAP worked partially |
financials.operating_income |
0.500 | 1.000 | β prompt helped, small support |
cover.form_type |
0.600 | 0.800 | β small win |
financials.total_debt |
0.000 | 0.000 | β FIN_MAP change didn't reach the model side |
cover.filing_date |
0.333 | 0.000 | β regression β model started returning report_date |
| Aggregate micro F1 | 0.560 | 0.560 | flat |
The aggregate looking flat hides real per-field motion. Two of the three fixes partially worked; one didn't move the needle. What this measurement tells me about v2.3:
- Prompt reinforcement has a ceiling. Two-pass extract-then-verify (first call extracts; second call is prompted with "here's what you just returned β verify the scale factor against the header text you were shown") is the next intervention, not more prompt paragraphs.
total_debton non-financial issuers is a definition problem, not a extraction problem. The model returns "long-term debt" as printed; XBRL ground truth sums 4+ concepts. Either loosen the comparator or pin the definition in the prompt with "return LongTermDebt only, do not sum."filing_dateregression is the interesting one β the prompt changes around dates may have accidentally biased the model toward the report date. Worth an A/B test on just that field.
The point of the harness is exactly this: a change ships, per-field numbers come back, and the next intervention is chosen from data rather than from a hunch. That's the loop I wanted to build.

Multi-model comparison (2026-07-05)
Same 10 records, same prompts, same schemas β only the model changes. All runs
use reasoning_effort="minimal". Reports land under evaluation/benchmarks/<timestamp>/.
| Model | Micro F1 | Macro F1 | Doc-exact | Latency | Cost / doc |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
gpt-5-nano |
0.896 | 0.885 | 40 % | 5.1 s | $0.0116 |
gpt-5-mini |
0.864 | 0.927 | 40 % | 6.1 s | $0.0127 |
gpt-5 |
0.884 | 0.939 | 30 % | 5.4 s | $0.0118 |
Read the numbers:
gpt-5-nanois Pareto-optimal on this workload β highest micro F1 at the lowest cost and lowest latency. Bigger tiers don't buy quality on high-support fields.gpt-5andgpt-5-minilead on macro F1 β they're measurably better on the rarer fields (macro weights every field equally regardless of support). If your extraction schema is long-tailed, the ~7 % macro-F1 lift may be worth the small extra spend.- Doc-exact stays 30-40 % across all three β an artifact of a strict metric and a schema with many optional fields. Micro F1 tracks real quality here.
- Total benchmark spend: $0.36 to definitively answer "which model should ship in prod?" β this is the kind of question worth measuring instead of guessing at, and it's cheap enough to re-run whenever the prompt or schema moves.
Reproduce:
python scripts/run_multimodel_benchmark.py
# or with a custom matrix:
python scripts/run_multimodel_benchmark.py gpt-5-nano:minimal gpt-5-mini:minimal gpt-4o-mini
Next: real image PDFs from the SROIE test split for a stricter, OCR-inclusive number, then the SEC 10-K schema for the long-doc / dual-domain story.
Streaming + async batch (v3)
Two extra endpoints exist alongside the vanilla POST /extract:
POST /extract/stream β same input as /extract, but returns
Content-Type: text/event-stream. The response is a Server-Sent Events
stream with progress events at each pipeline stage (starting β
loading β model_call β validated), a result event carrying the full
ExtractionResult, and a terminal done event. Errors surface as an
in-band error event because the HTTP 200 has already been sent by then.
Design note: the openai-python .parse() API doesn't yield partial
validated Pydantic objects (structured outputs strict mode returns the
final object only), so we ship progress events rather than partial JSON.
That's the honest UX β the user sees "something is happening" and the
answer arrives whole.
POST /extract/batch β multipart with N files. Returns 202 Accepted
{job_id, status: "pending"}immediately; extraction runs in FastAPIBackgroundTasks. PollGET /extract/batch/{job_id}for the snapshot. Concurrency is capped globally at 5 via anasyncio.Semaphoresized to stay under OpenAI's per-org rate limits even with multiple in-flight jobs. Job store is in-memory (one dict + one asyncio lock per worker) β swap Redis in for horizontal scale without touching the API.

Long-document handling (10-K path). SEC filings are 50-250 pages and would
cost ~$0.60/doc if we shipped the whole thing to the model on every call. So
the filing path runs the document through a section chunker
(src/extractors/section_chunker.py) that finds each Item 1., Item 1A.,
Item 7., Item 8. heading via regex, deduplicates against the Table of
Contents (keeping the last occurrence β the real section), and slices the
plaintext into named chunks. Only the cover, Item 8 (financials), and Item 1A
(risk factors) are stitched into the prompt β everything else is skipped.
Result: ~30β40K prompt tokens per 10-K instead of ~150K, on the same
gpt-5-nano @ minimal reasoning-effort configuration.

Quick start
# 1. Clone + install
git clone https://github.com/adityapatel007-byte/structured-data-extractor.git
cd structured-data-extractor
python -m venv .venv && source .venv/bin/activate # or .venv\Scripts\activate on Windows
pip install -r requirements.txt
# 2. Set your OpenAI key
cp .env.example .env
# edit .env β paste your OPENAI_API_KEY
# 3. Run the API
uvicorn src.api.main:app --reload
# 4. Run the UI β Paper & Ink React + Motion + R3F frontend
# (in another terminal, from ui/)
cd ui && npm install && npm run dev
# then open http://localhost:5173
# 5. (Optional) Evaluate against the committed sample ground truth.
# `selfcheck` mode uses a mock extractor to validate the eval pipeline (F1=1.0).
python scripts/run_eval.py --dataset data/samples/sroie_sample.jsonl \
--doc-type receipt --mode selfcheck
# 6. Benchmark a real model on your own ground-truth JSONL:
python scripts/run_eval.py --dataset evaluation/ground_truth/sroie.jsonl \
--doc-type receipt --mode live --model gpt-5-nano
Reports (per-record CSV + summary JSON + resume-ready markdown) land in
evaluation/reports/<UTC-timestamp>/.
Fine-tuning quick start (v4)
The full pipeline lives in scripts/:
# 1. Prep training data (produces <name>_train.jsonl + <name>_val.jsonl in OpenAI's chat-completions format).
python scripts/prep_ft_dataset.py \
--input evaluation/smoke_sroie_sample.jsonl \
--doc-type receipt \
--out data/ft/sroie_smoke
# 2. Launch the OpenAI fine-tuning job (uploads files, creates job, polls status).
python scripts/launch_finetune.py \
--train data/ft/sroie_smoke_train.jsonl \
--val data/ft/sroie_smoke_val.jsonl \
--suffix receipts-2026
# Wait 10-30 min for OpenAI to train.
# 3. Compare the fine-tuned model against the base gpt-5-nano on the same eval.
python scripts/compare_finetune.py \
--ft-model ft:gpt-4o-mini-2024-07-18:you:receipts-2026:abc123
The smoke datasets only have 5 examples each (SROIE + CORD) β OpenAI requires
at least 10 training rows. For a real fine-tuning run, first pull the full
SROIE / CORD training splits with python scripts/prep_datasets.py all, then
point prep_ft_dataset.py --input at the processed dataset.
10-K (SEC filings) quick start
# 1. Download the 5-issuer watchlist (Apple, JPM, ExxonMobil, Pfizer, Walmart).
# Files land in data/raw/10k/ β plaintext, sidecar JSON, and XBRL companyfacts.
python scripts/download_edgar.py
# 2. Build a ground-truth JSONL from the sidecars + XBRL.
python scripts/build_filings_gt.py
# 3. Run the eval against a real model.
python scripts/run_eval.py \
--dataset evaluation/smoke_filings_sample.jsonl \
--doc-type filing \
--mode live \
--model gpt-5-nano \
--reasoning-effort minimal
The filing extractor uses section-based chunking to keep per-doc cost around $0.05β0.15 instead of $0.60+ at whole-document context.
