Technical Definition

AI-powered technology that automates the extraction, understanding, and processing of data from diverse document types.

How it works

IDP leverages a combination of optical character recognition (OCR), natural language processing (NLP), machine learning, and computer vision. It can handle structured, semi-structured, and unstructured documents, extracting relevant information and context. IDP is critical for automating data entry, improving accuracy, and streamlining document-intensive workflows in businesses.
