DESCRIPTION:Most organizational knowledge is still locked inside complex d
 ocuments\, making it difficult to extract and use the information effectiv
 ely. Traditional tools often fail when working with real-world PDFs. Table
 s lose their structure\, figures are separated from captions\, and multi-c
 olumn layouts are flattened into unreadable text. These issues create a si
 gnificant barrier to using AI on real document data.\n\nThe open-source pr
 oject Docling presents a new approach to document ingestion that mirrors h
 uman comprehension using open-source deep learning models in a neat Python
  package. The system extracts structured information through consistent AP
 Is\, preserving original document hierarchy while ensuring machine readabi
 lity.\n\nWith support for over ten of the most common file formats and a c
 onsistent API\, Docling enables production-ready document processing pipel
 ines and provides seamless integration with established frameworks includi
 ng LangChain and LlamaIndex\, as well as multilingual support. Its MIT lic
 ense and local execution model make it suitable for sensitive enterprise a
 pplications.
