About Cradl AI MCP Server
Integrate Cradl AI, the advanced document data extraction platform, directly into your AI workflow. Automate the processing of invoices, receipts, IDs, and custom forms using powerful deep learning models and natural language.
LangChain's ecosystem of 500+ components combines seamlessly with Cradl AI through native MCP adapters. Connect 10 tools via the Vinkius and use ReAct agents, Plan-and-Execute strategies, or custom agent architectures — with LangSmith tracing giving full visibility into every tool call, latency, and token cost.
What you can do
- Data Extraction — Trigger real-time data extraction from document URLs with high precision.
- Model Management — List and explore your custom-trained extraction models.
- Workflow Monitoring — Track the status of document processing flows and individual tasks.
- Batch Processing — Audit and retrieve details for entire batches of processed documents.
The Cradl AI MCP Server exposes 10 tools through the Vinkius. Connect it to LangChain in under two minutes — no API keys to rotate, no infrastructure to provision, no vendor lock-in. Your configuration, your data, your control.
