LlamaIndex Launches OpenDocRouter: Swap Between 10 Document Parsing Models in One Line
llama_index · x · 2026-10-08
LlamaIndex announced OpenDocRouter: every document parsing model behind one API. The rationale: with 4,000 OCR models on Hugging Face and frontier labs shipping new ones nearly monthly, whatever is best today won't be by Q1 — so the real question is how fast you can switch, not which model to pick.
Key features:
- Switch models in one line: same request, same Markdown output, no new prompts or integrations.
- 10 frontier and open-source models at launch, including Claude Opus 5.5, Gemini 3.8 Flash, GPT-6 Luna, MinerU2.5-Pro and PaddleOCR-VL-1.6.
- Every model scored on ParseBench for quality and cost.
- layout: true adds grounded bounding boxes and unified layout classes even for models without native support.
- Per-token pricing; failed pages never charged; top up from $2.
