Definition
What is Intelligent Document Processing?
Intelligent Document Processing (IDP) combines OCR, AI, natural language processing, and workflow automation to handle documents as intelligently as humans but exponentially faster. IDP reads any format, identifies document types automatically, extracts fields without rigid templates, validates against business rules, and routes appropriately, eliminating 80-90% of manual data entry.
The IDP market is projected to reach $12.8 billion by 2030, driven by organisations digitising paper-heavy processes in finance, healthcare, legal, and insurance. Modern IDP platforms use transformer-based models that understand document layout, context, and meaning, achieving 95-99% extraction accuracy even on documents never seen before.
BespokeWorks implements IDP solutions tailored to your specific document types and business rules. Our deployments include custom model training, validation workflows, exception handling, and seamless integration with your ERP, CRM, and accounting systems, delivering end-to-end document automation.
