Keep the Source Safe.** Financial document intelligence platform that turns PDFs into queryable data while keeping source files secure and compliant. ## Features - **Document Ingestion**: Upload PDFs with SEC 17a-4 compliant immutable storage - **Schema Projection**: Query extracted data with custom schemas (not data dumps!) - **Multi-Schema Support**: Same document, multiple query patterns - **Webhook Delivery**: Async notifications on job completion - **Row-Level Security**: Multi-tenant isolation built-in ## Authentication All API endpoints (except `/health`, `/`, `/docs`, and `/redoc`) require API key authentication. Include your API key in the `Authorization` header: ``` Authorization: Bearer dk_live_ ``` Test keys start with `dk_test_`, production keys with `dk_live_`. ## Rate Limiting Per-tenant rate limits: - **Document ingestion**: 100 documents/hour - **Projection queries**: 1,000 requests/hour - **Schema operations**: 10 creates/hour Rate limit info is returned in response headers: - `X-RateLimit-Limit`: Maximum requests allowed - `X-RateLimit-Remaining`: Remaining requests in window - `X-RateLimit-Reset`: Unix timestamp when limit resets ## Error Handling All errors follow RFC 7807 Problem Details format: ```json { "error": "error_code", "message": "Human-readable description", "details": {} } ``` Common error codes: - `unauthorized` (401): Missing or invalid API key - `rate_limit_exceeded` (429): Too many requests - `invalid_file_type` (400): Only PDFs supported - `file_too_large` (413): File exceeds size limit (default 100MB, configurable via MAX_UPLOAD_SIZE_MB) - `job_not_found` (404): Job ID doesn't exist or doesn't belong to tenant ## Getting Started 1. Obtain API key from dashboard 2. Upload PDF: `POST /v1/documents` 3. Poll status: `GET /v1/documents/{document_id}/status` 4. Query results: `POST /v1/documents/{document_id}/project` Full documentation: [https://docs.docintel.com](https://docs.docintel.com) contact: name: DocIntell Support url: https://docintel.com/support email: support@docintel.com license: name: Proprietary url: https://docintel.com/terms version: 0.1.0 servers: - url: http://localhost:8000 description: Local development - url: https://api.docintell.com description: Production API - url: https://api-staging.docintell.com description: Staging environment security: - bearerAuth: [] tags: - name: health description: Health check operations.
