Data extraction from contracts

An image speaks more than a thousand words. Below is an example of the three steps our OCR engine takes to automatically extract data from contracts.
Step 1: Uploading contractsStep 2: Image to text (OCR)Step 3: Parsing to JSON

Uploading contracts to the API

The first step is providing a picture or a PDF file of a contract to our API. Usually this is done from a mobile app, email, FTP or web application.

The document can be sent cropped or uncropped (with some kind of background). If it is sent uncropped, the Klippa API will automatically crop the document.

Image to text using OCR

As soon as a contract picture or PDF has been received, each page is converted to a TXT file. In this step all the text from the document is extracted, but it is not yet structured.

Getting JSON output from the API

The Klippa Parser takes the TXT gained from the OCR in step 2 and converts it into structured JSON using machine learning. The JSON is then returned as output from the API. The contract is now searchable and important data fields like company entities, dates, signees and more have been extracted.

From here the contracts can easily be processed into your database or stored as a searchable PDF. Wether you are processing contracts for legal, M&A or other purposes, Klippa is here to help.
