Scanned PDF Data Extraction System

A web-based document intelligence platform that automatically extracts structured data from scanned PDFs — identifying document types, company names, addresses, and dates — turning unstructured paper into searchable, actionable data.

The Challenge

The client had thousands of scanned contract PDFs locked in unstructured formats. Legal and operations teams spent hours manually reading documents to extract key fields — company names, effective dates, clause types, and addresses. They needed an automated system that could process documents at scale and feed structured data into their existing workflows.

Our Approach

We built a three-stage pipeline: first, image preprocessing and OCR to convert scanned pages into raw text. Then, NLP models classify the document type and extract named entities (organizations, dates, addresses). Finally, a web interface lets users upload documents, review extracted data, and export structured results. The entire system runs on cloud-native infrastructure for elastic scaling.

The Results

  • Automated extraction of 12+ entity types from contracts

  • OCR accuracy improved through custom image preprocessing

  • Document classification by type (contract, invoice, letter)

  • Web UI for upload, review, and bulk export

  • Reduced document processing time from hours to seconds

  • Scalable cloud architecture for burst workloads
