No templates or training. Just describe what you need.
Our drivers just like to hand write everything. We had 6 FTEs just processing driver tickets until we found Lido.
This category answers to several names: intelligent document processing, document AI, data capture, or, if you ask an engineer, just doc parsing. The problem is always the same. Business data arrives locked inside documents: bills of lading at a trucking dispatch office, requisition forms at a medical practice, handwritten tax records at a CPA firm. Someone has to move that data into systems, and retyping does not scale. Lido reads the document, extracts the fields you defined, and hands the result to Excel, Google Sheets, CSV, or an API, with a confidence score attached to every value.
Frequently asked questions
What is AI document extraction?
OCR tells you what characters are on the page. AI document extraction tells you what they mean: this number is the total, that string is the PO number, these twelve lines are one table. The output is structured data with named fields, ready for a spreadsheet or a database.
What is document parsing software?
Software that splits documents into usable pieces of data. Older parsers ran on regex rules and broke whenever a layout shifted. AI parsing reads context instead of positions, so the same setup handles documents from different senders in different formats.
How do I set up an extraction?
Describe each field in plain English: "invoice date", "total including tax", "carrier name". That description is the whole configuration. No model training, no annotation rounds, no sample sets. The first document you upload comes back extracted.
How accurate is AI document extraction?
99%+ at the field level. Every extracted value carries a confidence score, so low-certainty fields get flagged for human review while the rest flow straight through. Accuracy holds on scans, photos, and mixed print-and-handwriting pages.
Can I run extractions through an API?
Yes. Use the browser for one-off jobs and the API for pipelines: send documents in, get structured JSON or spreadsheet rows out. Teams run both, spreadsheets for the monthly pile and the API for documents that arrive all day.
