Enhance Legal Workflow Efficiency with Intelligent Document Processing

Leveraging Intelligent Document Processing for Document Classification and Data Extraction

In the fast-paced legal landscape, where many documents flood law firms and legal departments daily, ensuring efficiency in document handling and information extraction is more critical than ever.

Old-school ways of handling documents are cumbersome, frustrating to use, and prone to mistakes, potentially leading to compliance issues and greater risk. This is where Intelligent Document Processing (IDP) tools like SortSpoke are used to improve how large legal documents are classified and data is extracted.

The Challenge of Complex Legal Documents

Legal teams find themselves constantly reviewing documents of all shapes and sizes. This diversity introduces significant challenges, from manual data entry errors to delayed processing times. These bottlenecks start at the document classification step because while many documents are similar, a review is required to determine precisely what type it is.

Manual processes hinder efficiency, create inconsistencies, and may lead to costly mistakes. While many technology solutions are available to address unstructured legal documents, many cannot get the job done when the variety of formats increases.

From agreements to contracts to correspondence, court filings, and even healthcare claims, your legal team already knows how to handle the complexity of the documents. What they need is a solution that augments them to make them better.

SortSpoke - Turning Unstructured Documents into Usable Data

If you’re unfamiliar with Intelligent Document Processing (IDP), it uses artificial intelligence and machine learning to classify, and we call it Sorting and turn structured, semi-structured, and unstructured documents into usable data.

One of the benefits of IDP is its ability to automate manual and repetitive tasks like classification and manual data extraction so teams can focus on higher-level tasks.

Tools like SortSpoke utilize Human-in-the-Loop Active Machine Learning, a sophisticated technology blend that combines human expertise with fast-learning ML algorithms.

By combining your teams' expertise and SortSpoke’s machine learning capabilities, you can augment the extraction of crucial information. This includes the basic document sorting and, more importantly, the valuable data found in sentences, clauses, paragraphs, and tables that span from one to hundreds of pages.
