We recently announced the GA of the Document AI Platform, Google's solution for automating and validating documents to streamline document workflows. Important business data is not always readily available in computer-readable formats. This is what we consider dark formats such as pdfs, handwritten forms and images.

Document understanding is the practice of using AI and machine learning to extract data and insights from text and paper sources such as emails, PDFs, scanned documents, and more. In the past, capturing this unstructured or "dark data" has been an expensive, time-consuming, and error-prone process requiring manual data entry. Today, AI and machine learning have made great advances towards automating this process, enabling businesses to derive insights from and take advantage of this data that had been previously untapped.

Templatic documents, such as receipts, bills, insurance quotes, and others, are extremely common and critical in a diverse range of business workflows. Currently, processing these documents is largely a manual effort, and automated systems that do exist are based on brittle and error-prone heuristics. A system that can automatically extract all this data has the potential to dramatically improve the efficiency of many business workflows by avoiding error-prone, manual work.
