Reducto Breaks the Price Barrier for High-Accuracy Document Parsing With r-1 mini at $1 per 1,000 Pages

Reducto's new model makes high-quality document data affordable at a scale that opens new possibilities for AI.

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 5, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Reducto today introduced r-1 mini, a document parsing model that disrupts the economics of document AI by bringing high-quality, structured output to $1 per 1,000 pages. Combining strong accuracy with a dramatically lower cost, r-1 mini makes it possible for teams to process more of their documents and build AI applications that were previously too expensive to pursue.

AI systems need more than the words on a page. Tables, reading order, layout, and formatting carry meaning that basic text recognition can miss. r-1 mini preserves that structure at a fraction of the price of competing offerings. In Reducto's blind ParseArena evaluation of 2,000 pages, it outperformed every entry-level configuration tested, as well as premium options including LlamaParse Agentic and Extend Performance that cost up to 25 times more than r-1 mini.

"AI's intelligence matters most when it can work with real-world data and context," said Adit Abraham, CEO of Reducto. "We built Reducto to handle the world's hardest documents, but our ambition is to make all of the world's knowledge usable."

That means making entire document archives usable, adding new sources of information, and bringing more of an existing workload onto Reducto. At $1 per 1,000 pages, r-1 mini gives teams a more affordable foundation for applications that need to work across large document collections.

Reducto is also making its flagship r-1 model generally available, giving customers two options for different workloads. r-1 mini makes large-scale processing more affordable, while r-1 delivers Reducto's highest accuracy, lower latency, and advanced capabilities such as word-level citations.

Customers can use either model or both, based on their documents and requirements. Enterprises interested in evaluating r-1 mini or benchmarking both models on their own documents can connect with the Reducto team at reducto.ai/contact.
