Overview

Unstract offers a suite of AI‑driven components that turn unstructured documents into structured data and automate the surrounding business steps. The platform is positioned for teams that need to embed document processing into APIs, ETL pipelines, or on‑premise servers, and it emphasizes both deterministic execution and agentic assistance where flexibility is required.

The first layer, LLMWhisperer, prepares documents for large language models. It preserves layout elements such as columns, forms, and table borders, and it can run multiple OCR engines to capture checkboxes, radio buttons, handwriting, and rotated pages. You can choose between layout‑aware extraction, plain text, or a raw text dump, and the service is reachable through a command‑line interface, an MCP connector, or SaaS endpoints.

Document Studio, the second layer, extracts structured JSON from the prepared text. You describe the target schema in natural language, and the system maps varied layouts to a single schema using an Agentic Prompt Studio and an Agentic Table Extractor. Human reviewers can be added to the loop for validation and exception handling. The extracted data can be deployed as an API, integrated into an ETL workflow, or run on an MCP server, with enterprise features such as SSO and multi‑deployment options.

Flow, the orchestration layer, combines deterministic workflow graphs with agentic process mining. A set of explorer agents observes user actions across browsers, SSH sessions, and mainframes, then produces a plain‑English specification that is compiled into a frozen execution graph. This graph can be versioned, tested, and audited, while bounded AI steps remain predictable. Flow includes more than 100 pre‑built connectors and supports human‑in‑the‑loop review, making it suitable for complex use cases like insurance invoice processing, loan file reconciliation, legal contract term extraction, and healthcare prior‑auth packet handling.

Key features

  • Layout‑preserving ingestion that keeps columns, forms, and table borders intact
  • Multi‑engine OCR that reads checkboxes, radio buttons, handwriting, and rotated pages
  • Natural‑language schema definition that produces a consistent JSON output
  • Human‑in‑the‑loop review built into the extraction pipeline
  • Deployable as API, ETL component, or MCP server with SSO and multi‑deployment support
  • Over 100 ready‑made connectors for downstream systems
