Billing table explanation - text detection vs text analyze

0

Hello,

What's the difference between Detect Document Text API and Analyze Document API, isn't it the same? I understand that Analyze Document means extracting data (for example tables, forms or extracting data based on our questions). But What does it mean Detect Document Text API? And What is difference between these two?

The Detect Document Text API is only using OCR technology to extract text and read handwriting from a document. The Analyze Document API applies additional processing to the text of a document to extract tabular data, key-value pairs, or query the document with plain questions (e.g., “What is the customer name?”) and receive that data (e.g., “Jane Doe”) as part of the response.
