The results.

Where your data lands.

The AI identifies the information and organizes it into these formats.

CLEAN DATA

Structured entity lists

The AI pulls names and dates into a clean format. You get a list that's ready to paste into a spreadsheet.

RAW TEXT

Original context preserved

The tool keeps the source text available. You can always check the original block to see where a piece of data came from.

HUMAN REVIEW

Manual verification needed

LOGS

Extraction history

Every time the agent runs an extraction, it's recorded. You can look back at what was pulled and when.

The workflow

    No. The extraction process is read-only. It doesn't delete or overwrite anything.

  • 03

    Can I extract things other than names and dates?

    Yes. You can tell your agent to look for different types of entities during the process.

  • 04

    What happens if the AI is unsure about a name?

    The AI will extract what it finds, but you'll need to review the results to ensure accuracy.
