I wrote a step-by-step guide on creating a workflow to pull structured data from PDF email attachments. It walks you through fetching emails, processing the PDFs, extracting and exporting the data.

Hi. Thanks for the question. To clarify, the MIT license was never removed or swapped. The license was and still is included in the folder that contains the code from the original project. In the root of the repository, I added the AGPL license for the new code I developed and made sure to explicitly acknowledge that the code in the folder is still under the MIT license.
I’ve also added a direct note acknowledging and linking back to the zerox project.

Hi. Thank you for pointing this out. I totally understand now that forking would have kept the commit history visible and made the attribution clearer. I have since added a direct note in the repo acknowledging that it is built on the original Zerox project and also linked back to it. If there’s anything else you’d suggest, happy to hear it. Thanks again.

on: Documind ripped our open source tool and swapped the license
Thanks for pointing this out, and I get where you're coming from. I didn’t mean to make it seem like Zerox wasn’t part of the project— which was why I included the MIT license both in the relevant code and the root file to make sure it was properly acknowledged.
On the forking thing, I honestly didn’t think it was necessary since cloning and modifying seemed fine for the use case, but I see how forking might’ve made things clearer. I’ll keep that in mind going forward.
Appreciate the heads-up about generateMarkdownDocument, too—I’ll fix that!

Hello. I apologize that it came across this way. This was not the intention. Zerox was definitely used and I made sure to copy and include the MIT license exactly as it was inside the part of the code that uses Zerox.
I also mentioned that MIT license again in the root license file.
If there's any additional thing I can do, please let me know so I would make changes. Thanks.

Hi. This was definitely not the intention.
I made sure to copy and past the MIT license in Zerox exactly as it was into the folder of the code that uses it. I also included it in the main license file as well. If there's anything I could do to make corrections please let me know so I'd change that ASAP.

Thank you, I appreciate the feedback! I understand people wanting data confidentiality and I'm considering connecting Ollama for future updates!

Thanks for the laugh and your feedback! I know that depending on an OpenAI isn't ideal for everyone. I'm considering ways to make it more self-contained in the future, so it’s great to hear what users are looking for.

Hi. I totally get the concern about sending data to OpenAI. Right now, Documind uses OpenAI's API just so people could quickly get started and see what it is like, but I’m open to adding options and contributions that would be better for privacy.
