| Best use | Ideal for a data analyst, Python developer, or small team that wants reproducible experiments, clear Git review, and an interactive report or internal tool from the same source. It is not a replacement for governed BI or a production service requiring enterprise scaling and permissions. | Best for a developer or analyst extracting text from several document formats before search or supplying selected passages to an AI agent. It provides a repeatable CLI command and Python library, while requiring review against the original. It is not intended for layout-perfect document publishing. | For documentation authors and small teams checking references locally or in CI. Start with a specific file and interpret findings; it does not establish complete site or login functionality. |
