Advanced user of Amazon TextractAmazon Textract help a lot in implementation of Robotic Process Automation. Best usage of Amazon Textract is to extract data from physical documents / pdf. Apart from just performing Optical Character Recognition, it extracts key/value pair & table data from it, which basically help a lot in converting physical document into digital. It reduces efforts to perform OCR & Write rules engine to extract meaningful information. Ready to use & no custom training required to start with.
Sometimes Amazon Textract is not able to identify data in desired format & as of now there is no mechanism to train this service to identify those data. This can be a bottleneck for some situation.
Try this service instead of only OCR. Best Service for Robotic Process Automation
We have automation our Purchase Order processing. We are getting invoices in email, which are parsed through Amazon Textract & meaningful data is stored into our database.
