We would like to thank DeepSeek-OCR, Vary, GOT-OCR2.0, MinerU, PaddleOCR for their valuable models and ideas.
We also appreciate the benchmark OmniDocBench.

Using it via the API
Once AxForge deploys titanml-deepseek-ocr-2 for you, it answers on the OpenAI-compatible API — the same base URL and keys as every other model. (titanml-deepseek-ocr-2 below is illustrative; you get the exact model name on deployment.)
$ curl -sS https://api.axforge.ai/v1/chat/completions \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $AXFORGE_API_KEY" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"model":"titanml-deepseek-ocr-2","messages":[{"role":"user","content":"Hello"}]}'
