👋 Hi Product Hunt!
I’m Mac, co-founder of Trellis. Let’s face it: working with PDFs really sucks. The text is stuck in the PDF and you need to manually transcribe the PDF values to your system of record.
Previously, when Jacky and I were at the Stanford AI Lab, we tried almost every software and open-source package on the market and found that
❌ Legacy RPA solutions? Too brittle for complex documents.
❌ LLM-based approaches? They hallucinate data and don’t provide reliable guarantees.
That’s why I’m thrilled to launch Trellis AI Studio—a platform designed to automate PDF workflows at scale with confidence.
At Trellis, we’ve solved these challenges with a platform that:
1️⃣ Lets you define custom extractions that support nested tables, dates, and currencies natively, and auto-generate schemas for any workflow.
2️⃣ Provides references for every result—ensuring complete auditability.
3️⃣ Offers best-in-class PDF parsing and OCR—we combine vision-language models and traditional OCR techniques to allow maximum flexibility for handwritten, scanned, and obscure file types.
4️⃣ Consistently improves over time without the need to label data manually upfront.
Many of our customers used to spend months on manual data entry or building their own internal AI solutions that failed on edge cases. Now they use Trellis to:
🔑 Streamline Real Estate Operations: A major brokerage leverages Trellis to extract thousands of data points from 100+ page leases and rent rolls—freeing their sales team to focus on closing deals.
💵 Optimize Revenue Operations: A fast-growing startup audited MSAs with Trellis and recovered over 20% in missing revenue.
🏥 Automate Clinical Workflows: Trellis processes lab reports and insurance claims directly into EHR systems, eliminating manual data entry.
We’d love to hear about your use cases and feedback! I’ll be here all day to answer questions or chat. You can try it live at https://runtrellis.com or book a call (https://cal.com/mac-klinkachorn/...) to take advantage of our Product Hunt deals.
We read PDFs so you can spend more time reading poetry.
Looks unreal Mac, could've really used this back in University three or four years ago - But I've got it now which is what's important!
I hope the launch goes well, wishing you & your Co-Founder the best of luck today!
