Extract information from any business document automatically to enable end-to-end business process automation
Extract and organize information from complex content in any document format
Intelligent Document Processing (IDP) solutions transform unstructured and semi-structured information into usable data. Business data is at the heart of digital transformation; unfortunately, 80% of all business data is embedded in unstructured formats like business documents, emails, images and PDF documents.
Intelligent document processing is the next generation of automation, able to capture, extract, and process data from a variety of document formats. It uses AI technologies such as natural language processing (NLP), Computer Vision, deep learning and machine learning (ML) to classify, categorize, and extract relevant information, and validate the extracted data.

IDP makes any and all data accessible for business processing
By 2025, IDC predicts worldwide data to exceed 175 zettabytes. With most of this information locked in emails, text, PDFs, and scanned documents—think for a moment of the volume of data in email alone—it poses a real barrier to automation and digital transformation.
Without IDP-like solutions, RPA-automation processes will require knowledge workers to read documents and extract data. IDP is key to unlocking the value of RPA.
Like RPA, Intelligent Document Processing tools are completely non-invasive, integration-friendly, and are widely applicable across industries and business functions.
Intelligent Document Processing (IDP) provides:
Direct cost savings. Reduces expenses by dramatically cutting costs to process large volumes of data
Higher straight through processing (STP). Minimize the need for knowledge workers to manually process documents
Ease of use. Allows businesses to get set up faster and automate more processes
Process efficiency. Enables end-to-end automation of document-centric processes
Accuracy uplift. See immediate significant increases in data accuracy with the use of AI
Strategic goal boost. Automated data processing supports business goals like improving customer experience
Empower business users to automate any business process that involves documents, by themselves
IDP is an essential ingredient of intelligent automation. Automation can reach only so far as data is available to work with. With standard RPA systems, setting up data extraction to run automations is often a separate 3rd party project, which adds ongoing costs as well as fragile integration points.
Effectively extracting data and structuring information is the gateway to automating the lion’s share of business processes that today rely on manual inputs and intervention. Embedding Intelligent Document Processing within the RPA platform is what enables business users to automate processes end-to-end. When IDP and RPA live together in the same platform, you have the biggest pieces of the automation puzzle working in sync, effortlessly.
Start processing data. Fast. Integrated, RPA-native IDP tools are easy to set up, often 5-10x faster than other approaches
Lower your processing costs AI-driven IDP + RPA improves straight-through processing (STP) by continuously learning from human feedback
Business user friendly Built-in IDP makes it easy to get started with pre-packaged use cases to choose from for the most common document processing scenarios
Enterprise-level automation Tie your IDP software into other areas of the business to realize a fully integrated RPA system without the need for expensive upgrades

Process any document Accelerate digital transformation by combining the power of IDP that can handle structured and unstructured documents in almost any format with automation
Secure and reliable document handling Quickly scale document processing operations and regulatize data capture to extract data needed to get the job done
Self-improving document processing Built-in AI allows for increased return on investment over time as IDP bots continuously learn and improve
Plug-and-play data capture tools Access a larger toolset such as specialized OCR technology to support unique use cases
Extraction use case library Embedded IDP within enterprise RPA software can come ready with preset extraction packages to apply right away to the most common document processing scenarios
Intelligent Document Processing software is ready to extract and organize data across industries and business functions, right out of the box.
Intelligent Character Recognition (ICR) is the next level of OCR, applying AI to better identify glyphs and other textual elements that are difficult to read.
Use IDP to process barcodes, manifests, invoices, and more, for rapid supply chain operations from orders through accounts payable.
Use IDP document scanning to convert paper-based documents into machine-readable file formats (PDF, Microsoft Word, etc.) with searchable text for optimal performance.
Automate document creation by pulling from different data sources and using document templates to produce in-depth reports, complex legal documents, and much more.
Intelligent capture solutions seamlessly pull the information you want from documents for further processing, storage, and use in other applications.
Store and organize documents for easy retrieval or archiving and automate record retention requirements compliance.
