Document processing

AI document processing that reads your PDFs, emails and contracts, and fills in the details for you.

Claims, applications, contracts, invoices, reports. Our systems read each document as it arrives, pull out the details your team needs, file them against the right client and write a short summary, with a person checking anything that matters.

The problem

The work nobody sees

In a lot of service businesses, someone spends a big part of every day opening attachments, reading them, typing the key details into another system and forwarding them to whoever needs them. It's slow, it's error-prone, and it gets worse every time the business grows.

That's exactly the kind of work AI is good at: reading carefully, the same way every time, without getting tired.

What it does

What our AI document processing systems do

  • Watch the inbox or folder where documents arrive
  • Work out what each email or document is (a claim, a new application, a contract, an invoice, general correspondence) and route it
  • Read PDFs and scans, including ones that aren't neatly formatted
  • Pull out the details your team needs: names, dates, amounts, policy or reference numbers, deadlines
  • Match each document to the right client, case or project
  • Write a plain-English summary of long documents and email threads
  • Fill in the fields in your CRM, case management or project tool
  • Flag anything missing or unusual for a person to check

In this recording, Storm builds an email and PDF system for an insurance workflow, live and unedited. It watches the inbox, sorts each email into claims, client communication or other, downloads the PDFs, reads them, pulls out the key details and links everything to the right customer.

The Technical Traders: the inbox, handled

Every incoming email used to be drafted by an assistant and then checked by a second person: 15+ hours a week of senior time. Now AI reads each email, finds the right response and posts a draft in Slack in under 10 seconds for a person to approve.

Safeguards

Accuracy and checks

  • Documents carry details that matter, so every system starts with a person checking what the AI extracted before it's saved anywhere important.
  • We test it against documents your team has already processed by hand, and as it proves reliable you decide which checks can go.
  • The AI summarizes and extracts. It doesn't give legal, financial or medical advice.
  • Anything that needs a professional's judgment stays with your professionals.
