Why people look for a Nanonets alternative
Nanonets is a full intelligent document processing platform: custom-trained models for your own document types, workflow automation, and API integration into your existing systems. That is genuinely powerful, and it is priced and onboarded as an enterprise product.
Some people arrive at it needing far less — a few hundred invoices or statements turned into spreadsheets, without training a model, configuring a pipeline, or booking a call. DocTable is built for that smaller job: upload, scan, download a file. If you need custom fields or approval flows, DocTable genuinely cannot do it and Nanonets is the right choice.
Be honest about the fit
Nanonets is built for teams that need custom-trained models and workflow automation wired into their own software. DocTable is a self-serve web app with no custom model training, no workflow builder, and no dedicated integrations team — if that's what you need, Nanonets or a similar IDP platform is the better fit.
If your actual task is "I have a photo or PDF of a table, invoice, receipt or form and I need the data in a spreadsheet or a document I can edit" — that is the one job DocTable is built around, using a vision-language model rather than character-level OCR. If your task is something Nanonets does and DocTable does not (see the table above), Nanonets is the right tool.
What DocTable does not claim
No SOC 2 report, no guaranteed uptime SLA, no custom-trained models, no workflow builder. Full detail on what DocTable does and does not do with your data is on the security page — including the parts we don't do.
Try it before switching anything
Run your first 3 pages free before deciding — the first page needs no account. If DocTable's extraction isn't accurate enough for your documents, you've lost nothing by checking.
Frequently asked questions
Is DocTable a replacement for Nanonets?
Not entirely. Nanonets is a B2B intelligent document processing (IDP) platform — custom-trained extraction models, workflow automation, and API-first integration. DocTable does one narrower thing: it reads a document with AI vision OCR and outputs structured Excel or Word data. Nanonets is built for teams that need custom-trained models and workflow automation wired into their own software. DocTable is a self-serve web app with no custom model training, no workflow builder, and no dedicated integrations team — if that's what you need, Nanonets or a similar IDP platform is the better fit.
What does DocTable actually do differently?
DocTable focuses on one step: turning a photo, scan or PDF into real spreadsheet rows or an editable Word document, using a vision-language model that reads tables and fields rather than just characters.
Is DocTable free?
Your first 3 pages are free — scan and download, no card needed. Your first page needs no account; sign in only to download it. After that, $3 buys 20 pages (one-time, no subscription).
Does DocTable have a mobile app or API?
DocTable is browser-based with no mobile app. DocTable also offers a REST API and an MCP server for automation (see the developers page).
