- Depot Pick
- Reducto · 8.10/10 for this job (curated estimate, high confidence)
Reducto preserves clause structure, tables and exhibits in long contracts and SOC 2 PDFs, which is what a downstream LLM needs to fill a risk matrix without hallucinated clauses.
- Runner-up
- Anthropic · 8.52/10
Scores higher than the pick on: Capability fit, Latency / reliability, Developer & agent DX, Privacy / data retention, Maturity / track record.
- When not to use the pick
- Need the reasoning/redlining model over the extracted clauses — Anthropic; default parse DX — LlamaParse; OSS partitioning in your VPC — Unstructured. Depot does not give legal advice; a human approves any signature.
- Lock-in / migration
- The pick has lower stored lock-in risk than runner-up Anthropic (4.5 vs 6.5).
- Sourced price (no comparable unit)
Pick: no sourced price in this job's unit (no_matching_sourced_price).
No cheapest SKU (no_comparable_unit_for_job). No price was invented.
- Free option
- No free resource lists this job. A cheap paid SKU is not a free option.
- Failure modes to watch
- No failure mode plainly applies to this job (no_failure_mode_plainly_applies).
