# Benchmarking OCR and vision models on documents

Compare text extraction accuracy and formatting across multiple vision models side by side

[Use with BotBento ](https://app.botbento.com/?ref=usecases&utm_source=botbento.com&utm_medium=usecases&utm_campaign=benchmarking-ocr-and-vision-models-on-documents)Copy promptShare[Markdown](/text/usecases/benchmarking-ocr-and-vision-models-on-documents/index.md)

Opens BotBento. Paste the prompt into a bot; nothing is preconfigured.

- When you askUpload document to benchmark
- ThenExtract text via model endpoints
- ResultLog accuracy and text diff

Evaluate how different multimodal and optical character recognition models parse complex documents. The bot takes sample pages, submits them across selected model endpoints, highlights transcription mismatches, and records side-by-side performance metrics.

## Prompt to start with

BotBentoRecommended

```
When a document or image is provided, run text extraction using the designated vision model endpoints. Align the extracted text line by line, identify transcription errors or structural differences, and compile the comparison into a spreadsheet. Always ask for confirmation before saving files to shared directories or modifying existing test datasets.
