Nanonets OCR for AI agents
Nanonets OCR extracts structured data from documents using trained, model-based OCR workflows, letting teams automate data entry from scanned files. Connect it once through Arc0, and your agent, or Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor, can use it through one MCP endpoint, limited to what each user approved.
What agents do in Nanonets OCR.
Extract data from a document URL
Run OCR extraction on a publicly hosted document to pull structured fields.
Check a prediction's extracted fields
Pull a specific OCR prediction's page-level results to verify extraction accuracy, a read-only check.
List predictions for a model
List recent predictions made by a model to review its recent activity, read-only.
6 Nanonets OCR actions, graded by risk.
Every Nanonets OCR action is tagged read, write or destructive, so one policy covers the whole app and new actions inherit the right default.

Nanonets OCR in three steps.
- 01Your users connect Nanonets OCRThey add their Nanonets OCR api key on Arc0 Connect, under your brand. It goes straight into the vault.
- 02You set the rulesReads run, and writes like “updates” can wait for the user to approve.
- 03Any agent can actYour agent calls Nanonets OCR through the Arc0 SDK or MCP, and so can Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor. Every call lands on the audit log.
await arc0.policies.set('nanonets_ocr', { read: 'allow', write: 'ask', destructive: 'deny', }) # Claude Code: the same connection, one URL $ claude mcp add --transport http arc0 \ https://mcp.arc0.ai/u/u_8f2
How Nanonets OCR connects.
Users add their Nanonets OCR api key on Arc0 Connect. It is encrypted in the vault, never shown to the model, and each user can rotate or revoke it at any time.
The same Nanonets OCR connection serves your agent over MCP and your own backend over REST and the proxy, so a user connects once. How Arc0 handles credentials →
- AUTH
- API key
- CREDENTIALS
- Per-tenant encrypted vault
- MODEL SEES
- Results only, never credentials
- AUDIT LOG
- Every call, on every plan
Use Nanonets OCR from any agent.

Nanonets OCR and Arc0, answered.
Can I use Nanonets OCR with Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor?
Yes. Connect Nanonets OCR to Arc0 once, then add your Arc0 MCP URL to Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Claude Code or any other remote-MCP client. Each assistant only gets the Nanonets OCR actions you allow.
How do users connect Nanonets OCR?
Users add their Nanonets OCR api key on Arc0 Connect. It is encrypted in the vault, never shown to the model, and each user can rotate or revoke it at any time.
Which Nanonets OCR actions can my agent take?
6 in total: 6 read, 0 write and 0 destructive. Your policies decide which of them each agent may call.
Can I make my agent read-only in Nanonets OCR?
Yes. Allow read actions and deny writes in the Nanonets OCR policy. Your agent can still look things up, and any write it attempts is blocked and logged.
Can my own backend call Nanonets OCR too?
Yes. The same Nanonets OCR connection is available over REST and through the Arc0 proxy, so your product and your agent share one connection per user.
Plug Nanonets OCR into your agent.
Your users connect Nanonets OCR once, under your brand. Your agent gets 6 actions behind your policies, with every call on the record.
