LIMITATIONS OF MANUAL DOCUMENT PROCESSING
Optimise your document lifecycle with AI
Invoices, contracts, delivery notes: Many organizations have thousands of documents on file, complete with an archive date but lacking usable metadata. Anyone trying to answer a simple question, such as what term applies, which clause is in effect, or what amount is due, has to manually open document after document. d.velop AI changes that. Intelligent Document Processing (IDP) automatically recognizes document types, precisely extracts relevant data, and passes it on in a structured format to the next step in the process.
