Document extraction is an important step before retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), knowledge bases, and downstream generative AI can work. It turns unstructured documents like PDFs and scans into structured text and layout-aware representations. We introduce NovaLAD, a comprehensive document parsing system that integrates two concurrent YOLO object detection models - element detection and layout detection - with rule-based grouping and optional vision-language enhancement. When a page image is sent in, the first thing that happens is that it goes through both models at the same time. The element model finds semantic content like the title, header, text, table, image, and so on, and the layout model finds structural regions like layout_box, column_group, multi_column, row_group, and so on. A key design decision is to first send an image or figure through an image classifier (ViT) that decides whether it is relevant or not. Only useful images are then submitted to the Vision LLM for title, summary, and structured information, which cuts down on noise and costs. NovaLAD is built for speed: it works on CPU, employs parallel execution for detection, classification, OCR, and conversion, and generates several forms, including structured JSON, Markdown, RAG-ready texts, and knowledge graphs. We test on the DP-Bench benchmark (upstage/dp-bench) and get 96.49% TEDS and 98.51% NID, which is better than both commercial and open-source parsers. This paper explains how to extract data, how the architecture works, how data flows, and how to make NovaLAD both accurate and usable without needing a GPU.
