Docusplit vs Lido: split and rename PDFs, compared

Both split a combined PDF by content and name each file with AI. They differ on entry price, setup, what comes back (a ZIP or data in a workflow) and how much else they do.

In short

Lido is a document data extraction platform that offers split and rename as one workflow step, with rules that carry over to future batches, routing into folders or drives, and export to Excel or an ERP. Docusplit stops at split and rename, with no setup and a ZIP plus CSV as the result, and its entry plan costs €9.99 for 100 pages against $29 at Lido. If you need amounts and line items in a spreadsheet, Lido is the right place.

Docusplit vs Lido: common questions

Is Docusplit cheaper than Lido?
Per page, yes. All plans here work out at about €0.10 per page (100 pages for €9.99, 1,000 for €99.99). Lido Standard is $29 for 100 pages, so $0.29 per page, and its pricing page lists Scale at $0.19 per page. The ladder at Docusplit ends at 1,000 pages a month, though; above that you need Lido Scale or Enterprise.
Does Lido give me the files or just the data?
Both. Lido names the split files and places them in a folder, a drive or the next workflow step, and it extracts fields to Excel or CSV on top. Here you get a ZIP with the PDFs and a CSV overview, with no routing and no field extraction beyond invoice number, company, document type and date.
Can Docusplit do everything Lido does?
No. Lido is an extraction and workflow platform with validation against your systems, schedules, an API and ERP integration. Here there is only split and rename; in return, nothing needs setting up before the first upload.
Where are my files processed?
At Docusplit, files are transferred over TLS, kept only while processing and then deleted from our servers. AI analysis runs through the OpenAI API (data processing agreement with OpenAI Ireland, Standard Contractual Clauses, never used for training; OpenAI retains API data for up to 30 days for abuse monitoring). See our privacy policy. Lido lists SOC 2 Type II, HIPAA and no training on customer data; its reports are at trust.lido.app.
Which should I choose?
Choose Lido if extracted data should flow into spreadsheets or an ERP, batches should run from a watched folder on a schedule, or SOC 2 and HIPAA are required. Choose Docusplit if you want a ZIP of named PDFs and a CSV with no setup, and your volume stays under 1,000 pages a month.
