You could do this with ease with an LLM and function calling. What would you be doing differently? If you can help non technical ppl then maybe but I’d argue anyone using JSON is likely technical :)

I’ve built a few of these with OpenAI function calling and it seems to do a pretty good job. I have yet to convert those over to open source models but doable.

Creating an API for users to convert their unstructured data to JSON on the go, ensuring type safety :)

Try it out and see what ppl think. The one thing you have to keep in mind is privacy around data. If you can somehow make this work such that user privacy is not an issue then you might be good. Lots of companies are hesitant to process their data outside of their servers but again depends on data classification policies.

Once you build it let me know I can help you test it out.
