Introduction:
In today's digital age, organizations face the challenge of managing millions of critical documents across various departments. To meet the demands of evolving customer expectations, manual and paper document-driven workflows must be redesigned. This blog explores how Pillir, powered by AWS and Adobe Acrobat Services, leverages the PDF Extract API to achieve intelligent document transformation and seamlessly integrate with SAP systems.
Challenges of Manual Document Processing:
A Sapio Research survey reveals that 90% of employees spend up to 8 hours a week managing documents. While digital document processing can accelerate workflows, challenges persist in automating custom clauses and handling conditional elements in ERP systems like SAP. Development teams face heavy-lifting tasks such as document generation, merging, metadata tagging, and information extraction.
Introducing Adobe Acrobat Services:
Adobe Document Cloud offers a suite of cloud-based APIs, including Acrobat Services, empowering developers to embed Acrobat's capabilities in applications and automate document processes. This blog focuses on how Pillir utilizes the PDF Extract API, a cloud-based web service leveraging Adobe's AI technology, to automatically extract and structure content from PDF documents.
Pillir's EdgeReady Cloud Platform:
Pillir's EdgeReady Cloud, hosted on AWS, acts as a rapid application development platform that accelerates digital processing techniques and automates document workflows.
