Rhubarb

Rhubarb is a light-weight Python framework that makes it easy to build document understanding applications using Multi-modal Large Language Models (LLMs) and Embedding models. Rhubarb is created from the ground up to work with Amazon Bedrock and Anthropic Claude V3 Multi-modal Language Models, and Amazon Titan Multi-modal Embedding model.

Rhubarb comes with built-in system prompts that makes it easy to use it for a number of different document understanding use-cases. You can customize Rhubarb by passing in your own system prompts. It supports exact JSON schema based output generation which makes it easy to integrate into downstream applications.
