Four pages that orient you to Recognito: what it is, how it works, your first document, and getting into your account. About fifteen minutes end to end.

New to Recognito? Read them in order. Otherwise, jump to whatever covers what you need.

What's in this section

• What Recognito is — the short product overview: what it does, what you can run through it, and the Mapping layer that runs after extraction.
• How Recognito works — the mental model: projects, fields, the two status tracks, the Mapping rule engine, and how data leaves the system. The anchor concepts page for the rest of the docs.
• 5-minute quick start — upload your first document, watch extraction run, validate the result.
• Account setup — sign in, switch between organizations, update your profile.

Where to go next

• Reviewing documents day to day → Using Recognito — finding documents, fixing fields, approving.
• Setting up projects, fields, and users → Configuring Recognito — projects, capture channels, permissions, enterprise features.
• Building rules → Mapping & Workflows — the rule engine in depth.
• Integrating with code → API Reference — endpoints, webhooks, and the custom response schema.
