LLMParser is a simple and flexible tool to classify and extract structured data from text with large language models.

📖 Full documentation available here

While LLMs are extremely powerful, producing reliable JSON output is challenging.

LLMParser aims to solve this by enforcing a consistent JSON input and output format for classifying and extracting text with LLMs.

LLMParser is a fairly general purpose tool. You can use it to extract job titles from LinkedIn profiles, dishes from restaurant menus, or even classify reviews as positive or negative. Here are some more examples:

• Extracting name, school, current job title from resumes
• Classifying corporate contracts as NDA, MSA, etc. and extracting important fields like effective date and counterparty name
• Extracting place names from Apple Notes

npm install llmparser

Quick note: this library is meant for server-side usage, as using it in client-side browser code will expose your secret API key. Go here to get an OpenAI API key.

import { LLMParser } from llmparser;

const categories = [
  {
    name: "MSA",
    description: "Master service agreement",
  },
  {
    name: "NDA",
    description: "Non disclosure agreement",
    fields: [
      {
        name: "effective_date",
        description: "effective date or start date", // instruction for LLM
        type: "string"
      },
      {
        name: "company",
        description: "name of the company",
        type: "string"
      },
      {
        name: "counterparty",
        description: "name of the counterparty",
        type: "string"
      }
    ]
  }
]

const parser = new LLMParser({
  categories,
  apiKey: process.env.OPENAI_API_KEY
})

const ndaText = await loadPDFAsText("src/nda.pdf") // get text of PDF
const extraction = await parser.parse(ndaText);
