Intelligent document processing that reads invoices, forms and contracts, extracts the data and sends it to your finance and operations systems.
About Intelligent Document Processing
Intelligent document processing turns unstructured files such as invoices, purchase orders, forms and contracts into structured data. It combines text recognition with language models to find the fields that matter.
The aim is to remove retyping, not to remove review. Good systems flag low-confidence fields for a person, learn from corrections and keep an audit trail from the original file to the final record.
