Azure AI Document Intelligence offers a general read OCR model plus prebuilt and custom models for invoices, receipts, and IDs, with layout and table extraction. It targets structured business documents rather than one-off images.
Pricing is usage-based per page, and prebuilt/custom models cost more than the plain read model. On ExactRead it is credit-metered, so you can compare it with Textract and vision models on the same document in one run.
Azure Document Intelligence works well when you need native OCR engine reading for images and PDF. Because document quality varies, ExactRead lets you run Azure Document Intelligence on its own or compare it side by side with other OCR routes before you standardize.
Document quality varies, so the only reliable way to judge Azure Document Intelligence is on your own files. Upload a sample, run Azure Document Intelligence here, review the extracted text, and compare it with another OCR model in the same workspace before you commit.
Every Azure Document Intelligence result keeps its model, status, confidence, warnings, and structured JSON, so reviewers can see why an output was accepted. Accepted results export as TXT or JSON for downstream workflows.
Yes. Azure Form Recognizer was renamed Azure AI Document Intelligence — the same service with an expanded set of prebuilt and custom document models.
Azure Document Intelligence is a native OCR engine that ExactRead exposes for OCR. The best way to judge fit is to test it on your own documents and compare the output against another model in the same run.
On ExactRead, Azure Document Intelligence accepts images and PDF. After you upload, the model list is filtered to what your file actually supports, so you never start a job that cannot run.
Each Azure Document Intelligence run costs 2 credits per document by default. Admins can adjust per-model credit costs, and compare mode charges each selected model.
