A Guide to AI Document Extraction

A Guide to AI Document Extraction

(Last Updated On: November 21, 2022)

During the COVID-19 epidemic, an automated AI document extraction pipeline could have been useful. A lot of data had to be manually put into a database, such as the number of persons tested, the test reports of each individual, and so on. The document extraction process may have been automated to save time and human resources.

Here is why manual document extraction has to be replaced with AI document extraction technology:

  • Errors: Errors are inevitable while doing a difficult and repetitive operation like manual data entry. Identifying and rectifying these errors, later on could be costly.
  • Slower processes: Manual data entry is a slow operation compared to automated data extraction, and it could block the entire production pipeline.
  • Data Security: When dealing with sensitive data, a human data entry method might lead to data leaks, damaging the system.
