Configuring Settings

Click the gear icon on the prompt card to open the settings modal for the agentic table extractor.

Settings Reference​

Lite LLM Adapter (required)​

The LLM adapter used by Agent 1 (PresenceDetector) for page screening. This agent makes one call per page, so a smaller, faster, and cheaper model is ideal.

Good choices include GPT-4o-mini, Claude Haiku, or Gemini Flash. The lite adapter screens pages to determine which ones contain the target table — it doesn't need to extract data, just identify relevant pages.

note

The advanced LLM used by Agents 0, 2, 3, and 4 comes from the project's default LLM Profile, not from this settings modal. To change the advanced LLM, update the project's LLM Profile.

Start Page​

The first page to scan for tables. Defaults to 1 (the first page of the document).

Set this higher if you know the table doesn't appear until later in the document. For example, if you're processing a 50-page report and the target table always starts around page 30, set Start Page to 28 to skip the earlier pages and reduce cost.

End Page​

The last page to scan. Defaults to 0, which means scan through the last page of the document.

Set this to limit scanning to a specific range. Combined with Start Page, this lets you focus the pipeline on exactly the pages that matter.

Parallel Pages​

The number of pages to process concurrently during Agent 1's page screening. Accepts values from 1 to 32, with a default of 4.

Higher values speed up processing on large documents but increase concurrent LLM API calls. Consider:

  • 1–4: Conservative. Good for rate-limited API keys or small documents.
  • 8–16: Balanced. Works well for most documents and API rate limits.
  • 16–32: Aggressive. Best for large documents (50+ pages) with high-throughput API keys.

Choosing the Right Configuration​

Document TypeRecommended Settings
Short document (1–10 pages)Default settings work well. Parallelism won't matter much.
Long report (50+ pages)Set Start/End Page to narrow the range. Increase Parallel Pages to 8–16.
Multi-page tableKeep the full page range (or set it just around the table). Default parallelism is fine.
Excel workbookStart/End Page maps to sheet numbers. Set to target specific sheets.
