Extract clean text, tables, and structured data from documents and code — no format detection, no OCR setup, no stitched-together libraries. One engine, 15 language bindings, runs anywhere.
Xberg is the next iteration of Kreuzberg. Same document-intelligence engine, rebuilt and rebranded under a fresh v1 line.
<div align="center">
Feed documents → get clean text, tables, metadata, transcripts, code intelligence · Run it library, CLI, REST API, or MCP server · No GPU needed · Stream multi-GB files · Cache results.

</div>
<p align="center"><em>Feed any document—get structured text. Extract, batch, stream, or crawl.</em></p>
What you get
Point Xberg at anything — a PDF, a spreadsheet, a scanned image, an audio file, a source tree — and get back clean, structured content you can use right away. One core does the format detection, reading, and extraction, so you don't assemble a pipeline yourself. Call it from Rust, Python, Node.js, Go, Java, C#, Ruby, PHP, Elixir, Dart, Swift, Zig, WASM, Kotlin, or C FFI, and run it as a library, CLI tool, REST API, or MCP server.
| What it does | How |
|---|---|
| Extract from 97 formats | PDFs, Office, images, HTML, email, archives, scientific publications, and code — intelligent MIME detection, streaming for large files. |
| 6 output formats | Plain text, Markdown, Djot, HTML, JSON tree structure, or Structured (JSON with OCR metadata and bounding boxes). |
| Code intelligence | Functions, classes, imports, symbols, docstrings from 306 programming languages. Syntax-aware chunking for RAG pipelines. |
| Crawl & recurse | Follow URLs, extract documents from within documents (nested archives, embedded PDFs). Auto/Document/Crawl modes. |
| OCR on demand | Tesseract, PaddleOCR, Candle, or VLM backends — fallback chains, extensible via plugins. Confidence scores. Language auto-detection. |
| Transcription | Whisper ONNX for audio/video tracks (MP3, M4A, WAV, WebM, MP4). |
| Embeddings & search | Local (ONNX models) or provider-hosted (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, 143 providers via liter-llm). Reranking. |
| Structured outputs | LLM-powered extraction — local (Ollama, LM Studio, vLLM) or remote (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google). |
| Enrichment | NER, redaction, summarization, translation, QR code detection, page classification, keyword extraction (YAKE/RAKE), language detection, layout detection, table extraction, token reduction (TOON). |
| Batch & parallel | Process 100s of documents in parallel. Per-file timeouts. Configurable batch concurrency (max_concurrent_extractions). |
| Caching | Content-hash cache keys — skip re-extraction when the file and config are unchanged. |
| Deployment | Library, CLI (12 commands), REST API (xberg serve), MCP server (9 tools, 3 prompts, 4 resources), Docker. |

Extract text from a document:
use xberg::{extract, ExtractInput, ExtractionConfig};
#[tokio::main]
async fn main() -> xberg::Result<()> {
let config = ExtractionConfig::default();
let output = extract(
ExtractInput::from_uri("document.pdf"),
&config
).await?;
println!("{}", output.results[0].content);
Ok(())
}
