Collection notes
Two of the processors are recorded as plans: Enterprise Document OCR ($1.50 per 1,000 pages for 1,000 to 5,000,000 pages a month) and Form Parser ($30 per 1,000 pages up to 1,000,000), both at the first-tier rate; the lower rates beyond those tiers ($0.60 and $20) are not recorded, so a cost above those volumes is an upper bound. The Layout Parser ($10 per 1,000 pages) is not recorded. The first 1,000 pages of Document OCR are listed at $0.00 (Free), but the row does not say per month, so it is recorded as a free allowance of unknown recurrence and the cost is the list price from the first page. Authentication is Google Cloud credentials, not an API key. You are not billed for failed requests.

Enterprise Document OCR returns text; the pages read do not say whether it returns tables (the Form Parser does).
