Get high quality data from Documents fast, and deploy scalable serverless Data Processor APIs

Tensorlake is the platform for agentic applications. Build and deploy high throughput, durable, agentic applications and workflows in minutes, leveraging our best-in-class Document Ingestion API and compute platform for applications.

Features

• Document Ingestion - Parse documents (PDFs, DOCX, spreadsheets, presentations, images, and raw text) to markdown or extract structured data with schemas. This is powered by Tensorlake's state of the art layout detection and table recognition models. Review our benchmarks here.

• Agentic Applications - Deploy Agentic Applications and AI Workflows using durable functions, with sandboxed and managed compute infrastructure that scales your agents with usage.

Document Ingestion Quickstart

Installation

Install the SDK and get an API Key.

pip install tensorlake

Sign up at cloud.tensorlake.ai and get your API key.

Parse Documents

from tensorlake.documentai import DocumentAI, ParseStatus

doc_ai = DocumentAI(api_key="your-api-key")

# Upload and parse document
file_id = doc_ai.upload("/path/to/document.pdf")

# Get parse ID
parse_id = doc_ai.parse(file_id)

# Wait for completion and get results
result = doc_ai.result(parse_id)

if result.status == ParseStatus.SUCCESSFUL:
    for chunk in result.chunks:
        print(chunk.content)  # Clean markdown output

Customize Parsing

Configure chunking, table output, figure summarization, and more. See all options.

from tensorlake.documentai import DocumentAI, ParsingOptions, EnrichmentOptions, ChunkingStrategy, TableOutputMode

doc_ai = DocumentAI(api_key="your-api-key")
file_id = doc_ai.upload("/path/to/document.pdf")

result = doc_ai.parse_and_wait(
    file_id,
    parsing_options=ParsingOptions(
        chunking_strategy=ChunkingStrategy.SECTION,
        table_output_mode=TableOutputMode.HTML,
        signature_detection=True
    ),
    enrichment_options=EnrichmentOptions(
        figure_summarization=True,
        table_summarization=True
    )
)

Structured Extraction

Extract specific data fields using Pydantic models or JSON schemas. See docs.

from tensorlake.documentai import DocumentAI, StructuredExtractionOptions
from pydantic import BaseModel, Field

class InvoiceData(BaseModel):
    invoice_number: str = Field(description="Invoice number")
    total_amount: float = Field(description="Total amount due")
    due_date: str = Field(description="Payment due date")
    vendor_name: str = Field(description="Vendor company name")

doc_ai = DocumentAI(api_key="your-api-key")

result = doc_ai.parse_and_wait(
    "https://example.com/invoice.pdf",  # Or use file_id from upload()
    structured_extraction_options=[StructuredExtractionOptions(
        schema_name="Invoice Data",
        json_schema=InvoiceData
    )]
)
print(result.structured_data)

Build Durable Agentic Applications in Python

Deploy agentic applications on a distributed runtime with automatic scaling and durable execution — applications restart from where they crashed automatically. You can build with any Python framework. Agents are exposed as HTTP APIs like web applications.

• No Queues: We manage state and orchestration
• Zero Infra: Write Python, deploy to Tensorlake
• Progress Updates: Applications can run for any amount of time and stream updates to users.

Quickstart

Decorate your entrypoint with @application() and functions with @function() for checkpointing and sandboxed execution. Each function runs in its own isolated sandbox.

Example: City guide using OpenAI Agents with web search and code execution:

from agents import Agent, Runner
from agents.tool import WebSearchTool, function_tool
from tensorlake.applications import application, function, Image

# Define the image with necessary dependencies
FUNCTION_CONTAINER_IMAGE = Image(base_image="python:3.11-slim", name="city_guide_image").run(
    "pip install openai openai-agents"
)

@function_tool
@function(
    description="Gets the weather for a city using an OpenAI Agent with web search",
    secrets=["OPENAI_API_KEY"],
    image=FUNCTION_CONTAINER_IMAGE,
)
def get_weather_tool(city: str) -> str:
    """Uses an OpenAI Agent with WebSearchTool to find current weather."""
    agent = Agent(
        name="Weather Reporter",
        instructions="Use web search to find current weather in Fahrenheit for the city.",
        tools=[WebSearchTool()],  # Agent can search the web
    )
    result = Runner.run_sync(agent, f"City: {city}")
    return result.final_output.strip()

@application(tags={"type": "example", "use_case": "city_guide"})
@function(
    description="Creates a guide with temperature conversion using function_tool",
    secrets=["OPENAI_API_KEY"],
    image=FUNCTION_CONTAINER_IMAGE,
)
def city_guide_app(city: str) -> str:
    """Uses an OpenAI Agent with function_tool to run Python code for conversion."""
    
    @function_tool
    def convert_to_celsius_tool(python_code: str) -> float:
        """Converts Fahrenheit to Celsius - runs as Python code via Agent."""
        return float(eval(python_code))
    
    agent = Agent(
        name="Guide Creator",
        instructions="Using the appropriate tools, get the weather for the purposes of the guide. If the city uses Celsius, call convert_to_celsius_tool to convert the temperature, passing in the code needed to convert the temperature to Celsius. Create a friendly guide that references the temperature of the city in Celsius if the city typically uses Celsius, otherwise reference the temperature in Fahrenheit. Only reference Celsius or Farenheit, not both.",
        tools=[get_weather_tool, convert_to_celsius_tool],  # Agent can execute this Python function
    )
    result = Runner.run_sync(agent, f"City: {city}")
    return result.final_output.strip()

Note: This is a simplified version. See the complete example at examples/readme_example/city_guide.py for the full implementation including activity suggestions and agent orchestration.
