Your document agent is only as good as the parse behind it! I've built a Grounded Document Agent that answers questions across long PDFs, attaches citations to every response, and lets you inspect the exact source behind those citations. A lot of document-agent failures look like retrieval problems, but the damage often happens much earlier. If a PDF table is flattened incorrectly, a chart loses structure, or the reading order breaks, better embeddings cannot recover what was already lost. For this project, I used LlamaParse to convert PDFs into layout-aware Markdown while preserving page
