Document processing
Documents are where automation looks easiest and fails quietest.
We have no third-party figures worth quoting here, so this page carries none. It describes how we approach the case instead.
How we build it
The work is in the exceptions, not the happy path.
01
Start from one document class
One form, one invoice layout, one contract type. A pipeline that handles everything handles nothing reliably.
02
Extraction needs a confidence floor
Below it, the document goes to a person. A system that guesses at a smudged number produces errors nobody catches until they are downstream.
03
The audit trail is the product
What was read, from which page, with what confidence, and who confirmed it. Without that, an automated document flow cannot be defended.
What we do not promise
- A percentage. Accuracy depends on your documents, and we have not seen them yet.
- That manual review disappears. It moves to the exceptions and gets smaller.
- That every format works. Scans, handwriting and photographs of screens each need their own answer.
