Dashboard vs API

DocPeel offers two ways to extract documents: the no-code dashboard and the REST API. Most production teams use both — the API for ingestion, the dashboard for review and corrections.

When to use the dashboard

• You don't have engineering bandwidth.
• Volume is < 500 documents per month.
• Your team prefers drag-and-drop uploads.
• You want non-technical reviewers to correct results inline.

When to use the API

• You're ingesting documents from an existing system (email, S3, Drive).
• You need extracted data flowing directly into an ERP, CRM, or warehouse.
• Volume exceeds a few hundred documents per month.
• You need programmatic access to confidence scores or original files.

Hybrid pattern (recommended)

1. API ingests documents from your source system.
2. High-confidence extractions auto-route to your warehouse.
3. Low-confidence extractions surface in the dashboard for human review.
4. Corrections flow back via extraction.corrected webhooks.

Pricing

Pricing is unified — 1 credit per successful extraction whether it came from the dashboard or the API. The same credit pool applies across the workspace.
