Lido focuses on extracting tables from PDFs into spreadsheets. DocImprint is built for AI agents that must cite sources with Merkle proofs and signed manifests in legal, finance, and compliance flows.
Not a drop-in replace. DocImprint is not a spreadsheet-first OCR product. Use Lido when the destination is Sheets/ERP tables; use DocImprint when agents need MCP-native extract with citations and offline verify.
