How Much Does Reducto Cost Per Page? (2026 Pricing)

Last updated July 2026.

Reducto costs between $15 and $60 per 1,000 pages for parsing, billed in credits at $0.015 each. A standard parse is 1 credit per page ($15 per 1,000 pages), complex and agentic parsing run 2 to 4 credits ($30 to $60), and standard extraction is 2 credits ($30). Deep Extract is 4 credits per page plus 0.1 credit per field, but it carries a 30-credit-per-document minimum, which works out to $0.45 for a single-page document. Every account gets 15,000 free credits, but only once, unlike LlamaParse's monthly renewal. Against plain cloud OCR at $1.50 per 1,000 pages, Reducto is roughly 10 to 40 times more, because you are paying for a vision-language reasoning pass, not cheaper OCR.

How much does Reducto cost per page?

Reducto prices everything in credits, and each credit is $0.015. To get a per-page price, multiply the credits an operation spends by $0.015. To get the price per 1,000 pages, multiply by $15. Here is every published operation converted to dollars.

The full breakdown, including the Batch Queue discount and the chart agent add-on, lives on the Reducto pricing reference. The short version: a plain parse is $15 per 1,000 pages, and turning on agentic mode doubles the credit cost every time.

How do Reducto credits work?

You buy credits, and every API call spends a set number based on the operation and the page count. Credits cost $0.015 each, so the arithmetic is simple once you know the credit rate per page. Parsing spends 1 to 4 credits, extraction 2 or more, splitting 2 to 4, classification 0.5, and editing 4. Spreadsheets are billed by cells rather than pages, at 1 credit per 1,000 cells on the accurate setting.

Reducto publishes one cost lever: the Batch Queue, which spends 20 percent fewer credits than real-time processing. So a standard parse in batch is 0.8 credits per page, or $12 per 1,000 pages instead of $15. Beyond that, the self-serve Standard plan is flat pay-as-you-go with no tiered volume discount; the Growth and Enterprise plans are custom-quoted.

Why is Deep Extract more expensive than the headline rate?

Deep Extract is 4 credits per page plus 0.1 credit per field, with a minimum of 30 credits per document. That minimum is the part people miss. A single-page document bills the full 30 credits regardless of how few fields you pull, which is $0.45 for one page, or $450 per 1,000 single-page documents. That is 30 times the $15 standard parse rate and 15 times the $30 standard extract rate.

The lesson is that Deep Extract only makes economic sense on long documents, where the 4-credits-per-page cost climbs above the 30-credit floor. A 30-page contract hits the floor exactly and costs $0.45 total, or $15 per 1,000 pages. Feed it single-page invoices, though, and the same feature costs thirty times more per page. This is the Reducto version of a billing-unit trap, the same shape as Google Document AI's prebuilt invoice parser billing per 10-page block.

Does Reducto charge for parsing when I extract?

It can. If you send a raw file or a URL straight to the Extract endpoint, Reducto charges Parse credits on top of the extract cost. So a standard extract on a raw file is 2 extract credits plus 1 parse credit, which is $45 per 1,000 pages instead of $30. To avoid paying for the parse twice, parse the document first, then call Extract with the returned job id. It is a 50 percent difference on every extraction you run at volume, so it is worth wiring your pipeline the right way from the start.

Is Reducto free?

Reducto gives every new account 15,000 free credits, which covers about 15,000 pages at the standard parse rate. But it is a one-time grant, not a monthly renewal. Once those credits are gone, you pay $0.015 per credit. This is worth knowing when you compare it to rivals: LlamaParse renews 10,000 credits every month, and Landing AI gives 1,000 credits that expire after 90 days. For an ongoing workload, budget Reducto as paid from day one.

Is Reducto worth the price over cloud OCR?

Reducto is not competing with AWS Textract, Azure AI Document Intelligence or Google Document AI on price. Those three all charge $1.50 per 1,000 pages for plain OCR, while Reducto standard parse is $15 and agentic complex is $60. What you get for the premium is a vision-language reasoning pass that reviews and corrects the first OCR result, plus a dedicated chart agent, which produces cleaner markdown and structured output on complex tables and multi-column layouts than raw OCR returns. If your documents are clean, single-column printed pages, cloud OCR does the job for a tenth of the cost. If they are messy financial statements or reports with dense tables and charts, the reasoning pass is what you are paying for.

The same tradeoff applies whether you are digitizing receipts and invoices for an automated expense workflow or feeding a retrieval pipeline: the harder the layout, the more the reasoning pass earns its keep. Test on your own hardest documents before you commit, because accuracy depends entirely on your specific layouts.

How does Reducto pricing compare to a managed product?

Reducto is an API you wire into your own pipeline, then review and correct the output yourself. A managed product such as DocuOCR bundles classification, extraction, validation, human review and export, billed per page at roughly $14 to $20 per 1,000 pages, so a business or operations team can run it the same day without building an application around a parser. Reducto can be cheaper per parse on a plain document, but you own the surrounding workflow. The right choice depends on whether you want an extraction API or a finished product.
