Donut is an OCR-free end-to-end Transformer model for visual document understanding tasks such as document classification and information extraction. The repository also includes SynthDoG, a synthetic document image generator for flexible multilingual pre-training.
Use cases
- extract structured data from invoices without OCR
- parse receipts into JSON
- classify document images
- pretrain a document understanding model on synthetic documents
- build a document parsing pipeline in Python
When to choose
- you need document information extraction without depending on external OCR engines
- you want to avoid OCR error propagation and reduce OCR compute costs
- you need multilingual or domain-flexible document pre-training via synthetic data
When to avoid
- you need general-purpose text OCR for plain text extraction
- you lack GPU resources for training or inference
- you need actively developed features or frequent updates
