Lightning-Fast Document Automation: Getting started with Parashift’s API in minutes Emma Lebat Parashift Platform July 16, 2025 When a single loan application can generate 50 + pages, manual document handling isn’t just slow—it bleeds margin. That’s why forward-thinking enterprises plug Parashift’s AI-powered document-processing platform straight into their workflow engines, RPA bots, and core systems via API. In this post, we walk you through the exact playbook featured in our latest “In depth explainers” video—so your developers can go from idea to first document parsed before the coffee is cold. 1) Head to the Developer Portal Your quickest path to value is docs.parashift.io. The portal houses everything you need to connect, starting with a concise Quick-Start guide that sits in the left-hand menu under “Use Cases & Examples.” Think of it as a curated starter pack: open the page, pick a scenario, and follow the prompts. 2) Choose the Use Case that fits best for your Document Automation The Quick-Start guide is organised around three everyday objectives: Classify & extract – Send a document, let the platform recognise its type, and receive clean, structured data. Add separation – Drop in multi-document PDFs and have them split automatically before data capture begins. Send feedback – Return user corrections so the system continuously refines itself. Select the path that solves today’s problem; you can layer the others in later without starting over. 3) Follow the Step-by-Step instructions Each use-case page provides a simple, ordered checklist. Upload a sample file, retrieve the results, and repeat with real documents. Clear explanations accompany every action, so there’s no need to hunt for extra information. 4) Slot into any workflow—Fast Whether you’re integrating with an ERP, ECM, or a fleet of RPA bots, the developer portal shows exactly how to blend Parashift into existing processes. Pre-configured connectors are available for many popular systems, yet the API remains your direct path when custom logic is required. Either way, you’re minutes from automation, not months. 5) Try it today Ready to see it in action? Book a live demo and start your free trial.
