doc.cheap

doc.cheap is a document-recognition API for developers. Send a photo or scan of a passport, national ID card or driver's licence, and get back the printed fields and the parsed MRZ as structured JSON. It ships with a REST API, an OpenAPI description, an MCP server, and free browser tools such as an MRZ checker and an MRZ generator for test data. The free plan gives 100 free recognitions every month, so you can build and test an onboarding or check-in flow before you pay anything. Built for KYC onboarding, travel and hotel check-in, and any form that should fill itself from a document.
