Products, side by side
Algorithmic pairing — assembled from recorded fields, not hand-checked
Box
Developer tool
Model Context Protocol server that lets external AI agents search, read and extract metadata from content in Box while enforcing the calling user's existing Box permissions, available as a Box-hosted remote server and as a self-hosted Python project.
LlamaIndex
Developer tool
LlamaIndex's open-source document parser, published on GitHub for teams that want parsing in their own process rather than through LlamaCloud.
The open-source framework the company is named for: SDKs for building context-aware agents over a company's own data, with Workflows for orchestration.
No counterpart
Box sells these in a stack layer with no product recorded for LlamaIndex yet — nothing on the other side to compare them against.
Application
No-code agentic workflow-automation platform that orchestrates intelligent content workflows -- contract approvals, claims processing, document routing -- combining AI agents, data extraction and document processing end to end.
Agentic data extraction service that pulls structured fields from documents, spreadsheets, images and video in Box using OCR and reasoning models, and writes the results back as Box metadata or returns them via API.
AI agent
Agents built on the Box platform that combine frontier models from OpenAI, Anthropic and Google with an organization's own content, automating multi-step tasks such as threat analysis and contract review while respecting Box's enterprise permissions.
Agent platform
No-code environment where Box administrators create, configure, test and deploy custom AI agents scoped to selected documents and models, and control which users can access each agent.
Platform
Generative AI layer across Box's content platform that answers questions over stored documents, summarizes files and folders, and extracts structured data from contracts and forms; agentic, multi-step work is Box AI Agents, recorded separately.
LlamaIndex sells these in a stack layer with no product recorded for Box yet — nothing on the other side to compare them against.
API service
Document parsing for LLM pipelines: layout-aware, agentic extraction that turns PDFs, contracts and forms into structured text a retrieval system can index, with an LLM or VLM reading the page when basic parsing is not enough.
Data service
Extracts structured data from complex documents using custom schemas, with field-level confidence scores and citations back to source.
The indexing half of LlamaCloud: intelligent chunking and embedding that turns parsed documents into a searchable knowledge base for agents.
