In their words

Documents are everywhere. Through all industries, understanding their content is a critical step of many processes that software builders throughout the globe want to automate. We focus on the science, the AI, the deep learning to give these builders the one API they need to automate the understanding of documents and give their software human-like superpowers. Based on three pillars: - A product: a universal self-service platform where builders can train their own models - A catalog of use-cases: We push critical use cases to the limits of human performances in critical markets such as Accounting software, AP Automation, Expense Management, KYC and many others - A internal capability to make tailor-made AI: We answer to specific needs from large customers that needs a custom AI of their own to handle their use cases
