Choose Your GroundX Path
Choose a guide for agent use, application development, extraction, or self-hosted deployment.
Use Agent Harness
Use Agent Harness to have Claude, Codex, or another agent load and search documents, extract data, troubleshoot processing, or explain GroundX.
See What Is GroundX Agent Harness? for an overview, then Install GroundX Agent Harness for per-client installation steps.
Once installed, connect the agent to GroundX’s hosted tools (see Connect Hosted MCP Tools), or use the GroundX SDK or REST API with your key. The SDK/API path works with any agent that can run code or make web requests (see the Direct SDK/API Quickstart).
Use SDKs Or REST
Use SDKs or REST when building a service or backend that calls GroundX directly.
Start with the Direct SDK/API Quickstart, then see the GroundX SDKs page for language-specific SDK installation.
Extract JSON From Documents
Extract structured JSON through Agent Harness or the SDK/REST API.
See Extract Data from Documents for the direct SDK path, or Use GroundX With Your Agent if you’d rather have an agent draft and iterate the extraction for you.
Deploy GroundX On-Prem
Use this when you’re planning a self-hosted or air-gapped GroundX deployment,
including an ingest-only mode (mode: ingest) that runs the ingest pipeline
without the retrieval/search stack.
See the GroundX On-Prem section, including GroundX On-Prem on AWS and GroundX On-Prem on OpenShift.
