Turn supplier documents into structured data without manual entry
Manufacturing procurement and quality teams drown in paper: supplier invoices in four different formats, spec sheets with complex BOMs, and mill test certificates that must be verified before shipment. DocumentIQ extracts structured data from all of them in minutes, not days. Configure your fields once, annotate a handful of examples, and let AI handle the rest — with a feedback loop that gets smarter with every correction.
The Challenges
Manual data entry from supplier documents
AP clerks and engineers spend hours re-keying data from invoices, spec sheets, and purchase orders into ERP and PLM systems — work that is slow, repetitive, and error-prone.
Varied invoice and document formats
Hundreds of vendors send documents in wildly different layouts. Traditional OCR and template-based tools break when a new format arrives, requiring constant reconfiguration.
BOM transcription errors
Miskeyed part numbers, wrong material grades, and transposed quantities from bill of materials lead to incorrect parts on the production floor, causing costly rework and delays.
Quality certificate review bottleneck
Every incoming shipment requires manual review of mill test certificates against specifications. The quality team can not keep pace with volume, delaying shipments and occasionally letting out-of-spec material through.
How DocumentIQ Solves This
Multi-row extraction
Automatically extract line items from invoices, BOMs, and composition tables — even when tables span multiple pages or use inconsistent column headers.
Annotations for format variety
Annotate a handful of representative documents per format to teach the AI where data appears. No template programming — just draw boxes and the model learns the pattern.
Feedback loops
When extraction misses an edge case, correct it inline and re-extract. Corrections become ground-truth examples that improve accuracy on subsequent documents from the same source.
Batch processing
Upload thousands of documents and process them in parallel. Real-time progress tracking lets you monitor the job without blocking your workflow.
