Veryfi vs DocuParse API

Veryfi is a mature document API. DocuParse is the faster path for invoice and receipt JSON.

Veryfi is strong when you need wide document coverage, SDKs, mobile capture, and enterprise security. DocuParse API is intentionally narrower: upload receipts or invoices and get clean structured JSON without enterprise setup.
