Extract critical data fields locked in PDFs, forms, paper or microfilm
Having editable data available in your ERP, spreadsheet or database platform allows you the ability to act upon, search, compile and analyze it.
Gaining access to this data can be a daunting task because so much of it is locked in other formats such as PDFs, images, paper and microfiche. Outsourcing to a professional organization makes sense. As the latest AI, OCR and manual data capture techniques are often already tested and proven.

What is document data extraction and data entry?
Having a digital picture of a document is helpful but doesn’t allow you to edit or extract useful data from it. Only when you capture the picture as editable data that you can then analyze, edit and make meaningful decisions. Document data extraction is the process to identify and capture individual data fields from a paper or PDF document and turn them into usable and editable data.
Having the right combination of technology such as AI, OCR and human verification and decades of expertise to review and capture data elements from images is where the advantages of outsourcing come to light. We take documents such as medical, insurance forms, surveys and complex financial statements that are stuck on paper or static PDFs and extract all the valuable data fields. We deliver this back to you in a custom, usable file such as XML or CSV.
Data that you can analyze and make decisions
Search and retrieve information and images based on exact data elements
Centralized dataset allowing for consistent, reliable and accurate information
Do you struggle with:
- Taking action because your data is locked in a PDF, paper or microfilm format?
- Ability to edit then analyze data because it’s not formatted correctly?
- Sharing information amongst co-workers, other organizations and systems?
- Spending countless hours data entering and transcribing from paper into your computer?
