The Challenge
Businesses that process contracts, receipts, or forms as PDFs often need the underlying data available in structured systems.
- Manually retyping scanned document content into spreadsheets or databases takes hours
- Transcription errors creep in when staff copy data by hand
- It’s not always obvious whether a PDF is a scanned image or a searchable digital document
- Tables embedded in PDFs are especially tedious to reproduce manually
