Unstructured data trapped in PDFs, Word documents, or images holds immense potential. For industries like pharmaceuticals, where precision and speed are vital, extracting actionable insights from this data can revolutionize operations. eZintegrations Document and Image Understanding APIs, powered by AI, transform chaotic, unstructured files into structured, machine readable data, delivering strategic advantages for drug manufacturing companies.
From Chaos to Clarity: A Real World Impact
A leading pharmaceutical company manages thousands of drug manufacturing recipes stored in PDFs, Word documents, and scanned handwritten notes. These recipes, critical for production, detail chemical compositions, batch processes, and compliance requirements. Manually extracting and organizing this data was a bottleneck, slowing production cycles and risking errors in regulatory reporting.
Using eZintegrations Document Understanding API, the company transformed this process. By sending a PDF recipe file to the API endpoint ({{base_url}}/docUnderstand), the system instantly extracts structured data in markdown or JSON format. For example, a 50 page recipe document with tables, chemical formulas, and compliance notes is converted into a clean JSON output, detailing ingredients, quantities, and process steps. This structured data integrates seamlessly with the companys manufacturing execution system, enabling real time production adjustments and ensuring compliance with FDA regulations.
The API supports diverse file types: PDFs, Excel, Word, even ZIP files, making it versatile for handling varied document formats. This consolidated scattered recipe data into a unified database, significantly reducing manual processing time and minimizing compliance errors.
Beyond Documents: Image Insights for Precision
The Image Understanding API ({{base_url}}/imgUnderstand) processes scanned images of handwritten batch notes and equipment labels in JPEG or SVG formats. These images, often illegible to traditional OCR tools, are converted into structured text with high accuracy. For instance, a scanned note specifying a temperature adjustment for a drug batch is extracted and fed into the production system, preventing costly manufacturing errors.
Business Impact: Speed, Scale, Success
By unlocking insights from unstructured data, eZintegrations enables pharmaceutical companies to accelerate drug development, boost production efficiency, and ensure regulatory compliance. The APIs ability to handle diverse file formats and deliver structured outputs in real time eliminates data silos, enabling faster decision making. For executives, this translates to a competitive edge: reduced time to market, lower operational costs, and enhanced operational agility.
