Introduction

AI Textract is a powerful document intelligence tool that automatically retrieves printed text, handwriting, and structured information from documents such as PDFs, images (PNG, JPEG), forms, and tables. It goes beyond basic OCR by using deep learning models to understand layouts, extract key-value pairs, and retain document structure without requiring manual adjustments. Whether you’re working with structured forms or unstructured receipts, AI Textract processes content in minutes and delivers accurate results without human intervention. Its built-in Receipt Analyze feature intelligently extracts vendor names, even from logos and identifies line items, quantities, and prices, even when column headers are missing. This makes it ideal for automating workflows that would otherwise require hours of manual review.

How to Use AI Textract

Use AI Textract to extract structured or unstructured data from scanned documents, forms, tables, or receipts in seconds. To get started, go to the Productivity group in the left panel of your dashboard and click on the AI Textract tab. Follow the steps below to choose the right detection type for your document.

AI Textract supports the following three advanced detection modes:
  • Form Detection

🧠 Best Practices

  • Only one detection mode (Form, Table, or Receipt) should be active at a time.
  • Text Detection is always performed and shown in the Raw Text tab, even when another detection type is selected.
  • Use Receipt Analysis specifically for transaction slips and receipts.
  • Use Table Detection for documents like invoices or balance sheets with structured tables.
  • Use Form Detection for input-heavy documents like employee records, applications, or registration forms.
