Client Requirement

The client’s user base required a software solution that would quickly fetch data by extracting information from desired PDF files. Therefore, the requirement brief aimed at developing a valuable and scalable PDF data extraction platform which comprised of the following major points:

  •  Develop a data-fetching software solution that would reduce errors in data entry. This feature is immensely useful in business processes involving high volumes of data every day.
  •  Enable a scalable and supple platform for automating data extraction, as this task makes working with PDFs easier and quicker, something that every enterprise aims at.
  •  Craft and configure appropriate rules so that the platform would automatically fetch data from the rendered PSF files.
  •  Reduce the search time professionals give up when they need specific data and wish to rekey the sets as required.
  •  Use OCR engines and solutions to auto-fetch and convert data from images to relevant, workable text
  •  An intuitive user interface that enables data handling and scraping undesired templates quickly with the least effort, along with auto-scarping pipeline operation for bulk PDF files.
  •  Export crucial data sets in various formats to help the user analyze precisely and have valuable insights.
  •  Leverage artificial intelligence in order to identify new fields and fetch them as needed with simple commands.
  •  Generate practical information with a few simple steps through the platform.

The client needed an application that could automate their data entry processes. So, they partnered with Technostacks, a leading web and mobile application development company, and ventured into an exciting project: designing a new-age PDF data extraction app.

Project Features and Functionalities

Technostacks’ PDF data scraping technology project provides a distinguished array of advanced features and groundbreaking functionalities. The application caters to and enhances the client’s needs with:

  • Text-based PDFs: Craft a unique extraction template comprising data regions and diverse fields to fetch precise content sections and values. The Technostacks platform aims to allow users to read PDF files seamlessly and retrieve information with ease, elevating the user experience to the next level.
  • Use Scanned PDFs: Businesses wishing to leverage PDF documents’ benefits use OCR (Optical Character Recognition) to convert image data into text. The Technostacks solution lets you operate the scanned PDF document, turn it into a similar text-based PDF, and make data capture easier.
  •  Leverage Form-Based PDFs: Businesses even have to deal with PDF forms, like surveys or staff feedback. These PDF documents are more structured than other categories. You can use this PDF extraction tool to fetch business data and customer information and further use it for explicit reporting and precise analysis.
  •  PDF Template Generation Module: This application allows users to easily upload PDFs by creating templates and selecting accessible custom fields from which information must be scrapped.
  •  Effortlessly Read PDF Files: The app lets you read PDF documents from diverse sources, including the FTP and email servers.
