Rossum is capable cloud AI. But it uploads your documents, and an AI engine can invent a figure. If you need the read to stay on-premise and be deterministic — the same numbers, every time, nothing leaving the building — here's the honest difference.
An honest, structural comparison. Rossum is a capable cloud product; the difference is where your data goes and whether a model can invent a number.
If your invoices can't leave the building and you need a read that can't be invented, that's exactly where an on-premise, deterministic engine wins.*Rossum is a cloud service that processes uploaded documents and markets an AI/LLM-based extraction engine; pricing is directional and quote-gated. Extractor's figures are our own tested results — about 99.7% on line-item numbers across 170+ real invoices, digital and scanned files alike. Rossum® is a trademark of its owner; Extractor is an independent product and is not affiliated with or endorsed by Rossum.
No spin. Pick by what matters most for your data and your workflow.
A hosted service with queues, approvals and integrations built in, you're comfortable with documents processed in the cloud, and you want a vendor to run the infrastructure for you.
On-premise and deterministic — nothing uploaded, no model that can invent a total, running on your own machine from $49/mo. The read stays yours, and it's reproducible every time. Exports clean Excel, CSV or JSON.
Reading and the side-by-side review are free and need no account. Pull the network if you like and run it on your hardest invoices — nothing is uploaded either way.
Because your invoice data never leaves your machine. Rossum processes documents in the cloud; Extractor reads them locally, so there's no upload, no third-party processing, and nothing to add to a data map or breach surface.
No — and that's the point. It's deterministic: figures are lifted off the page by rules, not generated by a model, so it can't hallucinate a total. The same invoice yields the same read every time.
No. Like Rossum, it doesn't rely on per-supplier templates — it finds the table by its headings and reads each field by its label, so unseen layouts work on the first try.
Yes. Reading, OCR and extraction all run on the machine; it works fully offline and can be air-gapped. A licence is verified locally, with no server call.
