What is Intelligent Document Processing?

Intelligent Document Processing (IDP) is the core of Xtracta. It’s the reason we offer a ‘set and forget’ approach to document processing—a result of artificial intelligence and machine learning combining to interpret documents of all structures, lengths, and styles. But why does this exist in the first place, when standard data capture software already exists? The answer has to do with efficiency and scalability. While companies have happily dealt with templating their documents for many years now, unstructured documents like emails, notes, and industry reports are now being seen as the information gold mines they truly are. Additionally, the sheer…

How Xtracta Dominates Bulk Document Processing

For companies faced with hundreds of documents to process, accurately extracting the data within meant a lot of time and effort, until automated data entry software changed the game forever. Unfortunately, many types of this software aren’t configured to handle many documents once. Either that, or their cost structures make it impossibly expensive to process more than a few documents a day. This is what separates Xtracta from other data entry software; our cost structures and processing capabilities make it easy to churn through large amounts of data efficiently. Discover how Xtracta can process many documents in a row, and…

Machine Learning & AI 101: The Basics

A few decades ago, machine learning and artificial intelligence (AI) were terms seen mostly in science fiction, heralding a future that we could only marvel at. However, thanks to speedy advancements in technology, the neural networks of the 1950s have quickly shifted to the deep learning networks of the present day. Before we get into the nitty-gritty, it’s important to know that machine learning and artificial intelligence are not separate from each other. Machine learning is in fact a branch of artificial intelligence, facilitating the wide array of tasks the modern AI can accomplish. Whether it’s creating a self-driving car…

Time is Money: How Automation Combats Revenue Loss

Running a business is all about managing your resources, both in terms of how much money you have and how many employees you need to get the work done. Despite this, many businesses still opt to leave data entry, processing, and other busywork to their employees when these tasks could be completed using automated data extraction. Corporate competition has never been more intense, and in an age of aggressive technological advancement, shockingly few companies are opting to automate their data entry processes. Beyond that, automation could be a key aspect of a business’ recovery strategy during the pandemic. Automation is…
