Operations

Every operation Fylane runs — 70 of them — with what each does and what a megabyte of it costs, generated from the catalogue the API enforces.

70 operations, one job shape. Name one in operation on POST /v1/jobs, or several in operations to run a pipeline. Credits are per megabyte of input, rounded up; POST /v1/estimate prices a specific file before you commit.

ai

Operation	What it does	Credits per MB
`ai.classify`	Which kind of document this is — your classes or the standard set — with confidence, answered by the in-sandbox model. The artifact names the tier.	4
`ai.extract`	Your schema in, validated JSON out: grammar-constrained extraction, so the shape is guaranteed by construction. Null where the document does not say. `schema` is a flat map of field name to `string`, `number`, `date` or `boolean`.	4
`ai.summarize`	Concise, detailed or bullet summaries from the in-sandbox model — the document never leaves Fylane.	4
`ai.answer`	A question about the document, answered by the in-sandbox model from the sentences that match it, with citations to page and section. An answer the cited passages do not contain is reported unsupported, whatever the model claimed.	4
`ai.translate`	The document’s text translated into another language by the in-sandbox model; `language` is a code such as `fr` or `es`. Up to the model’s window of 6,000 characters; longer documents are translated up to it and flagged `truncated`.	4

Operation	What it does	Credits per MB
`archive.inspect`	What a ZIP holds — names, sizes, methods — without extracting a byte.	1
`archive.extract`	One named entry out of a ZIP, capped and checksummed; bombs die at the cap.	1
`archive.create`	Up to ten files become one ZIP, entries named after the files they were.	1

audio

Operation	What it does	Credits per MB
`audio.inspect`	Duration, codec, channels, sample rate, bitrate.	1
`audio.transcribe`	Speech to text: plain text, or timed SRT/VTT — transcribed in the sandbox, no third party.	4
`audio.convert`	mp3, wav, aac or flac out of whatever came in.	1
`audio.trim`	The seconds you name, in the format you name.	1
`audio.normalize`	EBU R128 loudness (-16 LUFS) — the broadcast answer to "too quiet".	1

Documents and files

Operation	What it does	Credits per MB
`inspect`	What the file actually is — measured, not declared.	1
`scan`	Malware scan; the verdict is recorded on the file.	3
`convert`	Office documents to PDF; images to WebP.	1
`sanitize`	A safer copy. Images: re-encoded pixels, orientation applied, metadata gone. PDFs: JavaScript, auto-run and launch actions, embedded files neutralised — with a report naming exactly what was removed.	1
`preview`	The first pages as browser-ready images — PDF, Office or image; up to 8 pages at your width.	1
`thumbnail`	What it looks like: images resize, PDFs and Office render page one, videos give a frame.	1
`extract-text`	Markdown and the structured v1 content schema.	1
`normalize`	Text to canonical form: UTF-8, LF endings, Unicode NFC — with a report of what changed.	1
`detect-pii`	Find the well-defined identifiers — emails, phones, SSNs, checksum-valid cards, IBANs — with positions. The report names what this tier cannot see.	1
`extract-entities`	Dates, amounts, URLs and identifiers out of any text-bearing document, with positions.	1
`redact`	Remove, not cover: text masks in place; images and PDFs are rebuilt from pixels with the findings painted out — no text layer to leak.	3
`detect-language`	Which language a document is in — with the runners-up and an honest reliability flag.	1
`ocr`	Text from images and scanned PDFs.	3
`ai-ready`	Any document to Markdown, structure and semantic chunks; OCR routed automatically.	3

csv

Operation	What it does	Credits per MB
`csv.normalize`	Any CSV dialect into RFC 4180 UTF-8 plus structured rows, detections recorded.	1

image

Operation	What it does	Credits per MB
`image.resize`	Resize to your dimensions — inside, cover or fill; never enlarged. Answers WebP unless `format` says otherwise.	1
`image.convert`	Re-encode to WebP, JPEG, PNG or AVIF at your quality.	1
`image.crop`	Crop by coordinates, or centre-crop to an aspect ratio. Answers WebP unless `format` says otherwise.	1
`image.rotate`	Turn 90, 180 or 270 degrees — after EXIF orientation. Answers WebP unless `format` says otherwise.	1
`image.smart-crop`	Subject-aware crop: the saliency model finds the subject, the window centres on it.	1
`image.analyze`	Measured signals: sharpness, exposure, contrast, entropy, dominant colours — thresholds are yours.	1
`image.metadata`	Dimensions, colour space, and the common EXIF fields — camera, time, exposure, GPS.	1
`image.flip`	Mirror horizontally or vertically. Answers WebP unless `format` says otherwise.	1
`image.variants`	One image into up to eight responsive widths in one job.	1
`image.to-pdf`	One or more images become one PDF, a page per image at its own size.	1
`image.watermark`	A text watermark at a chosen corner and opacity. Answers WebP unless `format` says otherwise.	1
`image.remove-background`	The background turned transparent. mode "subject" finds a photograph’s subject with U²-Net; mode "color" keys out a flat background colour exactly, for logos, posters and diagrams. Flat art is refused by the subject mode rather than shredded, and told which mode works.	2
`image.set-metadata`	Write description, copyright or artist into a JPEG or PNG — losslessly, pixels untouched.	1

ocr

Operation	What it does	Credits per MB
`ocr.searchable-pdf`	A scan becomes the same document with an invisible, searchable text layer.	3
`ocr.layout`	OCR that keeps the geometry: every word with its box and confidence, grouped into lines.	3
`ocr.table`	A photographed or scanned table back as data: the grid as JSON and CSV, per-cell confidence.	3

pdf

Operation	What it does	Credits per MB
`pdf.inspect`	Pages, version, text layer, encryption, metadata — measured, not declared.	1
`pdf.form`	The form’s own answers: every field, its type, and what was filled in.	1
`pdf.pages`	One PDF of exactly the selected pages.	1
`pdf.rotate`	Right-angle rotation, whole document or selected pages.	1
`pdf.remove-pages`	The same document minus the named pages.	1
`pdf.reorder`	The same pages in the order you name — each exactly once, listed individually: `order: "3,1,2"`.	1
`pdf.watermark`	Grey diagonal text across every page, opacity yours.	1
`pdf.encrypt`	AES-256 password protection; the only strength offered.	1
`pdf.decrypt`	The inverse, where your password opens the document.	1
`pdf.set-metadata`	Title, author, subject, keywords — written as an incremental update.	1

`pdf.merge`	Up to ten documents combined into one.	1
`pdf.compress`	Structure-level recompression and linearization.	1
`pdf.render`	Pages to PNG, JPEG or WebP.	1

sheet

Operation	What it does	Credits per MB
`sheet.parse`	The workbook itself: sheets, values, types, formulas, merged ranges — dates as the serials Excel stores.	1
`sheet.extract`	A spreadsheet’s first sheet as normalized CSV and structured rows.	1

slides

Operation	What it does	Credits per MB
`slides.extract`	A deck’s text, slide by slide: title, body, speaker notes — read from the XML itself.	1
