End-to-end document parsers provide a unified interface, but serialize page layouts and regional contents into one autoregressive sequence. This formulation forces independent regions onto a decoding path whose length grows with the total content, whereas crop-based two-stage parsers expose region-level parallelism at the cost of repeated visual prefills and fragmented page context.

Jina-OCR-v1 is an end‑to‑end document parsing model designed for low‑budget GPUs, combining a compressed‑vision encoder with a 3B mixture‑of‑experts decoder that activates about 570 M parameters per token. It uses a FastMTP speculative decoding head that shares a single draft block across three prediction steps, with greedy verification ensuring lossless decoding. Post‑training includes instruction alignment, robustness fine‑tuning on difficult documents, and GRPO with dense verifiable rewards, achieving 91.14 on OmniDocBench v1.6 and 83.4 on olmOCR‑Bench while delivering the highest page throughput at 2.57 pages per second on an NVIDIA L4 GPU.
