Tried Gradient Labs for exactly this. Great for the 80% case, but we hit limits on the edge workflows and ended up scripting around it. Still net positive.

Sharing what's working: TotalAgility for the heavy lifting and ILovePDF2 to fill the gaps. Took a week to get the workflow smooth but now it mostly runs itself. What's everyone else pairing?

I'd suggest running both in parallel for a week or two before fully committing—reliability often shows up in edge cases and error handling that aren't obvious from docs. When you do report back, it'd be helpful to mention specifics like latency consistency, error recovery, and whether you hit any integration friction. What's your biggest reliability pain point with PydanticAI right now? That'll help you benchmark Plask more effectively.

Tried FreeMusic AI for exactly this. Great for the 80% case, but we hit limits on the edge workflows and ended up scripting around it. Still net positive.

+1 on this. The thing nobody mentions is the integration time — budget a week. After that it mostly disappears into the background, which is what you want.
