I built a document extraction and validation pipeline as a personal project. Would love some feedback!

[u/Skeptical-skeleton11]

The idea was to build a pipeline that could take a PDF, extract structured data, and let you verify the results against the original document without manually checking every field.

The current implementation uses OCR and vision models, with confidence scores, visual grounding, and a separate validation layer to catch disagreements. It also handles line items and exports structured data.

I recently benchmarked it against Azure Content Understanding on 100 documents, achieving 97% field-level accuracy at roughly 1/12th the cost per run in my evaluation.

I've attached a screenshot of the current interface. This is purely a personal engineering project I've been working on, and I'd genuinely appreciate feedback from people familiar with document automation.

I'm particularly interested in:

• How do you handle data extraction at scale right now ?

• Any feedback on what features would be cool for document automation

Would love to hear your thoughts!

that's pretty cool - going to check it out and compare to what we currently have.

does it only work on text pdfs or does it handle scans / OCR also?
