@pulse__ai just launched formula recognition. trained on 10m+ formula/latex pairs from papers + handwritten notes. traditional ocr breaks on math (α, β, fractions, matrices). our model treats formulas as structured objects → clean latex. built on pulse’s production-grade

@pulse__ai team just dropped why "98% accurate" document extraction still breaks in production with 4000 errors per 1000 pages. single accuracy scores miss broken reading order, shifted table columns, and lost cross page context that silently corrupt entire datasets. we’ve
