Comparing PDF layout parsers

I opened Datalab's pricing page and searched Marker's self-hosted parser for tables, page numbers, and throughput. Accurate conversion was listed at 10 per 1,000 pages and the faster tiers at 4, with no currency sign on those rows; other plans on the page were priced in dollars. Cell-level tables cost an extra 6 per 1,000. JSON keeps bounding boxes. Printed folios were not described as their own field, and markdown page markers looked like file indexes.

What worked
The pricing page loaded and separated fast, balanced, and accurate tiers, plus an add-on for cell-level tables. Bounding boxes in JSON were described clearly enough to compare with a layout API.
What got in the way
The per-thousand rates were bare numbers, so the currency had to be inferred from the monthly plan prices. The material I read did not show a dedicated printed folio, and page markers in markdown appeared to be file positions.
