AI Document Extraction

AI document extraction with your rules encoded.

We encode the extraction rules per document type — which version wins, which field maps where — so documents are read on arrival, not re-keyed.

  • AI implementation services
  • Rules encoded per document type
  • Every field traced to its source page
  • Only exceptions reach a person

The broken Friday

The documents never stop. Someone re-keys them.

From operations teams we have sat with: ops managers, controllers, revenue-cycle and practice-ops leads at mid-market and PE-backed companies between $20M and $500M — not shopping for software, watching the document pile eat a person’s week.

  • The weekly item-change PDF, parsed store by store

    A 7–10 page item-change PDF lands from the co-op every week, and someone breaks it down store by store — stale location or on-hand data breaks it.

  • The 20–50 tab monthly mega report

    The co-op pushes a 20–50 tab Excel workbook each month; an ops person pulls the count sheets out and pushes them to the stores as PDFs.

  • Every initialed box on every scanned consent form, checked by eye

    Field staff scan consent forms in and revenue-cycle clerks verify every initialed box one by one — the kick-back rate to the field stays high.

  • Timesheets hand-delivered by Dropbox every cycle

    Timesheets and payroll reports arrive by Dropbox for hand-cleaning every cycle — when the vendor changed, the layouts changed and the routine broke.

  • Seventy documents per case, assembled by hand

    Verifying one eligibility case means pulling 70 documents reaching 5 years back across 18 third-party services — per case, every time.

What manual costs

Re-keying is a payroll line, not a nuisance.

What the manual way looks like when every document is handled by a person: it arrives, sits in an inbox, gets read, gets re-keyed, and the errors surface weeks later. Your numbers will differ — the first document type we shadow puts figures on yours before anything gets built.

7–10Pages in the weekly co-op item-change PDF one retail chain breaks down store by store

~20–40%Of fields the last OCR tool actually captured — why burned buyers ask for proof first

From anonymized engagements — a ~20-store retail co-op member, multi-branch home health, a physician-group practice

How it works

AI document search — every field findable again after extraction.

No document-management migration, no new system to learn. The rules your best re-keyer applies become the extraction, and every extracted field keeps a pointer back to its source page.

  1. 01

    Shadow one document type

    We watch one document type for a week — every layout, every exception, every place the data lands — before anything gets encoded.

    Encode the extraction rules

    Which version wins, which field maps where, the confidence threshold on each — documented per document type, auditable, yours to keep.

    Humans see exceptions only

    The AI reads every incoming document; the exceptions the rules cannot resolve queue for a person, and approved fields write through the same day.

    Every arrival
Not another tool

The tool reads the document. It doesn’t know your rules.

Every tool on page one will read the document. None of them knows the addendum supersedes the contract, that this vendor’s “each” is a case, or where the field goes in your ERP.

Our AI does the reading; your rules — encoded, auditable, yours — do the judging. Approved fields write through with the source page attached.
