LlamaParse vs Reducto

Get complete records from difficult documents

On ExtractBench Pro, LlamaParse Agentic Plus extracts 38% of documents perfectly, compared with 3% for Reducto Deep Extract. These are documents where a value has to be worked out, not just read: a figure taken from a chart, a term defined elsewhere in the document, a count across pages.

Long documents show the same pattern at lower cost. LlamaParse Cost Effective scores 90.86 on ExtractBench’s long documents, compared with 27.28 for Reducto Extract.

Accept more correct data without manual review

In our 370-document evaluation, Agentic Plus accepted twice as much correct data without manual review as Reducto Deep Extract, at a 97% accuracy bar: 66.48% of expected values, compared with 33.23%.

Part of the gap is coverage. LlamaParse returned a confidence score for every value it extracted; Deep Extract scored 36.08%. A value without a score cannot be routed automatically, so it goes to a person.

Check every flagged value against the source

A citation is only useful if it points to the right place. On ExtractBench, LlamaParse citations match the correct words 79.80 to 83.25% of the time and the correct page 86.28 to 88.26% of the time, across all three tiers. Reducto Deep Extract scores 50.76% on words and 69.75% on pages.

Read charts and complex layouts in one pass

LlamaParse Agentic Plus scores 86.61 on ParseBench and leads Reducto on tables, charts, formatting and visual grounding. On charts, it scores 90.19.

Reducto r-1 scores 61.68 overall and 2.76 on charts, and its legacy Agentic pipeline scores 72.97. Chart reading is part of LlamaParse’s parsing tiers; Reducto offers advanced chart extraction as an additional step, billed per chart.

Spend less per correct result

Cost Effective scores 94.21 on ExtractBench at $10 per 1,000 PDF pages, compared with 83.79 for Reducto Extract at $20.

For harder documents, Agentic costs $31.25 and extracts 20% of ExtractBench Pro documents perfectly. Reducto Deep Extract costs $40 and extracts 3%. With more values passing without review, less of your budget goes to manual checking. For parsing, Cost Optimizer routes simpler pages to the lower-cost Cost Effective tier, while pages with complex tables, charts or layouts stay on your selected premium tier. You don’t pay the premium parsing rate for every page in a mixed document.
