Overview

What you get

Classify, extract, validate, and route thousands of PDFs, scans, and semi-structured forms with confidence-aware reviewer queues.

The problem

Why teams call us

  • Ops team is the bottleneck on a workflow that should already be automated.
  • Off-the-shelf OCR breaks on your messiest 20% — the 20% that matters.
  • Compliance needs every extraction auditable end-to-end.

Approach

How we work

  • Sample-driven: real documents on day one, not synthetic data.
  • Confidence-routed: humans review the long tail, not the easy 80%.
  • Schema-validated: nothing reaches downstream systems unchecked.

Process

Week by week.

  1. 01 · Week 1

    Sample & schema

    Doc sampling, target schema, accuracy targets.

  2. 02 · Week 2–4

    Build pipeline

    Classifier, extraction, validators, reviewer queue.

  3. 03 · Week 5–6

    Tune

    Confidence thresholds, throughput tuning, audit logging.

  4. 04 · Week 7–8

    Handoff

    Dashboards, runbooks, ops team enablement.

You're a fit if
  • High-volume document workflows blocking ops or compliance
  • Mixed inputs: PDFs, scans, semi-structured forms
  • A reviewer-in-the-loop step you want to keep auditable
Probably not a fit if
  • Single document type with a vendor that already nails it
  • Workflows that can tolerate 60% accuracy with no review
  • Teams unwilling to label 100–500 documents to bootstrap

Deliverables

  • 01Document classifier and extraction pipeline
  • 02Reviewer queue with confidence-based routing

FAQ

Real questions, technically answered.

What if our documents are highly variable?
We classify first, then route to per-class extractors. Variability becomes a routing problem, not a model problem.
Can this run on-prem?
Yes. We support fully self-hosted deployments where compliance requires it.
Who labels the bootstrap data?
Your ops team, with our labeling rubric and tooling. Typical bootstrap is 100–500 docs.
