Document Intelligence is the AI-powered capability to understand, classify, and extract structured data from financial documents — going beyond OCR to interpret document meaning in context.

What is Document Intelligence?

Document Intelligence is the AI-powered capability to understand, classify, and extract structured data from financial documents. While OCR converts printed text to digital characters, Document Intelligence understands what those characters mean: a number on line 22 of a Form 1040 is adjusted gross income, not just a number. In financial services, document intelligence is critical for banks, credit unions, non-bank lenders, and equipment finance companies looking to scale lending operations without proportionally increasing headcount.

Document Intelligence vs. OCR

OCR reads text from documents. Document Intelligence understands it. OCR returns characters; Document Intelligence returns structured, labeled, auditable data fields with full source citations to the originating page — enabling automated financial spreading and credit analysis without manual data entry.
