Turning paper into data.

WHAT IT DOES

Reads a document and extracts structured information: dates, amounts, names, line items.

Works from scans and photographs as well as digital files.

HOW TO ASK

"Extract from this invoice: supplier name, invoice number, date, each line item with quantity and price, and the total. Return as a table."

Specify the fields. Precision in the request produces precision in the output.

WHERE IT HELPS

Supplier invoices into your accounts Receipts for expenses Forms into a system Contracts into a summary

WHAT TO VERIFY

Every figure, against the document.

Transcription errors happen, and a wrong figure in your accounts is a real problem.

FOR VOLUME

Process in batches and check a sample thoroughly, plus every total.

WHAT AFFECTS ACCURACY

Image quality, substantially Handwriting Unusual layouts Poor scans

THE PRACTICAL APPROACH

Use it to avoid typing. Check the output as you would check your own typing.
