Your inbox becomes an API
Stop maintaining brittle extraction pipelines. MailFrame turns emails, PDFs, and images into typed, schema-validated JSON — delivered reliably to your webhook. One API call. One forward rule. Zero regex.
Ingesting documents today is a maintenance nightmare
Every team building document ingestion ends up maintaining the same fragile infrastructure.
Regex Spaghetti
Hand-crafted regex patterns that break the moment Stripe changes their email template. You maintain parsers, not products.
Brittle GPT Wrappers
A Python script that calls GPT with a prompt. No validation, no retries, no monitoring. Breaks silently in production.
Zapier Chains
Multi-step Zaps held together with duct tape. No error handling, no observability, no SLA. Good for prototypes, dangerous in production.
Manual Retries
Failed parse? Manually re-run. No DLQ, no replay, no alerting. Incident response is a developer SSH-ing into a box.
Two ways in, one way out
Direct API or email forward. Both produce the same typed, validated JSON.
Direct API
Send documents via POST /v1/parse. Get typed JSON back synchronously or async via webhook.
import { MailFrame } from "...";
const mf = new MailFrame({ apiKey: "..." });
const result = await mf.parse({
raw_mime: "From: receipt@stripe.com\n...",
schema_id: "stripe-receipt",
});
console.log(result.data);{
"receipt_id": "pi_abc123",
"amount_cents": 2999,
"currency": "usd",
"paid_at": "2026-05-21T17:30:00Z",
"customer_email": "user@example.com",
"card_last4": "4242",
"card_brand": "visa"
}Inbox Direct
Get a unique parse@mailframe.ai inbox. Forward any email — MailFrame extracts and delivers JSON to your webhook.
# 1. Get your inbox address
# parse@mailframe.ai
# 2. Create filter in Gmail
Match: from:stripe.com
Do this: Forward to parse@mailframe.ai
# 3. MailFrame parses the email
# JSON delivered to your webhook{

MailFrame is built for developers who need ingestion that doesn't silently break at 2 AM.
Resilience inproduction
Extraction is easy. Handling provider failures, schema mismatches, and malformed input at scale is where infrastructure matters.
