Consulting & Integration
Not a self-service project that ends up on your desk: our team sets up document classes, fields and the connection to your systems together with you.
Kick-off, joint configuration and a test run with your real documents — before the first batch goes live. All done by our own team, no offshoring.
Tell us your systems, document types and volumes. For integration projects you get a concrete quote at short notice — within three working days at the latest.
Case-management systems, DMS/ECM, ERP, mailboxes, RPA: we have connected Lector to many system landscapes — from public authorities and health insurers to banks. Afterwards, depending on your plan, you can book consulting hours at a fixed hourly rate.
Integrations
No system migration. No parallel operation. Lector integrates with your existing infrastructure.

Currently Gemini, GPT, Claude, Mistral, InternVL and Qwen — open and closed source. Closed-source models run GDPR-compliant exclusively on European servers (Google Vertex AI, Microsoft Azure). For enterprise customers we additionally develop custom models.
Import via REST API, email, SFTP/file system, messaging/webhook or from your own apps. Export via webhook or API by default, plus DMS/ECM/archive, ERP, databases, cloud storage, email and RPA tools (UiPath, Power Automate). All details are in the documentation.
A system running Ubuntu with at least 16 CPU cores (32+ recommended), at least 32 GB RAM (64 GB recommended) and around 1 TB of storage. AI processing requires a GPU, e.g. Nvidia H100 (80 GB) or RTX 6000 Ada (48 GB).
From just a few documents a month: the Starter plan bills per processed page with no base fee. From roughly 15,000 AI page calls a month, Business S is cheaper than pay-per-use.
Yes. The free trial includes 100 AI page credits with access to all AI features — once, with no commitment.
Every processing step is traceable: Lector keeps an immutable history per document (audit trail), shows straight-through-processing rates per document class and provides usage statistics for system and AI components. Confidence values are provided for certain AI models. KPIs can be pulled into your own reporting via GraphQL, system metrics monitored via Prometheus. For quality itself there is the Evaluation Center: compare settings and models on real documents before they go live.
