Sensible Instruct
Sensible Instruct turns PDFs and scans into structured JSON by letting you describe fields in plain language instead of writing brittle parsers. The feature lives inside Sensible's document extraction platform and uses large language models, including GPT-4, to read resumes, invoices, contracts, bank statements, and other layouts you have not configured before.
Traditional OCR and template parsers break when a carrier changes a form layout. Sensible Instruct adds Query, List, and Table primitives so teams pull single facts, repeating lines, or table rows through natural language prompts, then pair those prompts with SenseML configs when production guardrails matter. Sensible's broader hybrid pipeline still wraps AI steps with deterministic validation so extraction stays traceable in regulated workflows.
Operations teams, developers, and data scientists at insurance, healthcare, finance, and logistics companies use Sensible Instruct through app.sensible.so/instruct with a 14-day platform trial. Growth and Scale plans price per extracted document rather than per token, which keeps monthly bills predictable when volume spikes.
Query, List, and Table primitives extract facts, repeating rows, and tables via natural language prompts
GPT-4 powered extraction works on unseen document layouts without prebuilt templates
SenseML configs combine with Instruct prompts for customizable production parsers
Non-technical users can test prompts in the UI while developers deploy extraction APIs at scale
Platform reports 75 million plus documents processed with 150 plus library configurations
Growth plan includes 750 documents per month at $449 monthly or $499 on annual billing
Natural language Query, List, and Table primitives reduce hand-built parser work.
Per-document pricing avoids token volatility on large or noisy PDFs.
Hybrid Sensible pipeline pairs LLM extraction with deterministic validation rules.
150 plus prebuilt configurations cover insurance, healthcare, finance, and logistics forms.
Sensible Instruct depends on the broader Sensible platform rather than a standalone free tool.
Growth plan caps included volume at 750 documents per month before overage fees.
Enterprise HIPAA and custom SLA features require the top tier or a sales conversation.
What is Sensible Instruct?
Sensible Instruct is Sensible's natural language document extraction feature powered by LLMs including GPT-4. Sensible Instruct lets teams describe the data they need and receive structured JSON from PDFs and scans through app.sensible.so/instruct.
Does Sensible Instruct offer a free trial?
Sensible platform plans include a 14-day free trial with full extraction, validation, and configuration editor access. Sensible Instruct launched with no additional fee during its initial release phase on the Sensible platform.
How much does Sensible cost?
Sensible Growth costs $449 per month billed annually or $499 monthly with 750 included documents. Sensible Scale costs $1,349 per month annually or $1,499 monthly with 3,200 included documents and higher API throughput.
Which documents can Sensible Instruct parse?
Sensible Instruct handles resumes, invoices, contracts, academic papers, bank statements, utility bills, and other structured or unstructured layouts. Sensible Instruct uses Query, List, and Table primitives to target single fields, repeating sections, or tabular data.
How is Sensible pricing calculated?
Sensible bills per extracted document rather than per token, so each extraction result counts once even when a PDF spans many pages. Sensible Growth overages cost $0.57 per document and Scale overages cost $0.53 per document on the published pricing table.
Can developers customize Sensible Instruct?
Sensible Instruct pairs with SenseML so developers can merge natural language prompts with rule-based configs. Sensible also offers Zapier integration and REST APIs to push extracted data into production workflows.
