DocImprint Document Intelligence
Verifiable document intelligence for AI agents. Extract text, tables, and structured data from PDFs and URLs. Summarize, answer questions, check claims, and translate — all with cited evidence. Store tamper-evident evidence bundles with cryptographic signatures and on-chain attestation via Base L2. Cross-document semantic search and Q&A across named collections. Pay per call with USDC

At a glance
DocImprint turns any PDF or URL into a tamper-evident evidence bundle — structured data, AI-cited answers, and a cryptographic proof your agents can verify independently.
| Input | PDF or URL |
| Output | ev_... evidence bundle — cited answers, artifact hashes, EIP-191 signature |
| Verify | client.verify() — free, no auth; optional Base L2 notarization via EAS |

Why DocImprint?
- 🔏 Cryptographic provenance — every bundle is EIP-191 signed at creation; optionally notarized on Base L2 via EAS for an immutable on-chain audit trail
- 🤖 Agent-native by design — async jobs, webhooks, idempotency keys, and legal hold built into every request, not bolted on
- 📎 Beyond OCR — citations carry exact quotes, paragraph indices, and confidence scores (
high/medium/low), not just raw text - 🛠️ 10 CrewAI tools out of the box —
research_tools(),legal_tools(),collection_tools()pre-grouped for common agent workflows - ⚖️ Compliance-ready —
legal_hold, provenance logging, multi-agent handoff tracking, and on-chain notarization designed for legal and regulated industries - 💳 Flexible payment — monthly credit plans or pay-per-call USDC via x402, no account required
Agent-native features
DocImprint is designed for autonomous agent workflows, not just synchronous API calls.
// Fire-and-forget async extraction — returns job_id immediately
const job = await client.extract({
source: 'https://example.com/large-report.pdf',
async: true,
webhook: 'https://your-agent.io/callback',
idempotency_key: 'report-2025-q4',
legal_hold: true,
})
const status = await client.getJob(job.job_id)
// { status: 'complete', bundle_id: 'ev_...', progress_pct: 100 }
// Monitor a URL for changes — get notified on diff
await client.extract({
source: 'https://example.com/terms.html',
monitor: { webhook: 'https://your-agent.io/changes', mode: 'diff' },
})
Python: provenance & multi-agent handoff tracking
client.log_provenance(bundle_id="ev_...", agent_id="agent-research", action="extracted")
client.handoff(bundle_id="ev_...", from_agent="agent-research", to_agent="agent-legal", note="ready for claim check")

Authentication
API key
Monthly credits via Stripe — sign up at docimprint.com, free tier available:
const client = new DocImprintClient({ apiKey: 'dr_live_...' })
x402 USDC payments
DocImprint supports the x402 open standard — pay per call in USDC on Base, straight from any EVM wallet. No account. No sign-up. No API key. Your agent can call the API autonomously without any human-managed credentials.
The API is x402-native: it returns a standard 402 Payment Required response with on-chain payment details, your client settles in USDC, and the request completes automatically. From $0.01 / call.
With @x402/fetch (automatic payment handling):
import { wrapFetchWithPayment } from '@x402/fetch'
import { createWalletClient, http } from 'viem'
import { privateKeyToAccount } from 'viem/accounts'
import { base } from 'viem/chains'
const account = privateKeyToAccount('0x...')
const wallet = createWalletClient({ account, chain: base, transport: http() })
const fetchWithPayment = wrapFetchWithPayment(fetch, wallet)
const res = await fetchWithPayment('https://api.docimprint.com/v1/summarize', {
method: 'POST',
headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' },
body: JSON.stringify({ source: 'https://example.com/report.pdf' }),
})
const data = await res.json()
Identity on owner routes: For GET/DELETE operations that require ownership (e.g. fetching your bundle), pass the payment-signature header from a prior payment response so the API can verify your wallet address without a separate login.
TypeScript
All request and response types are exported:
import type {
