How the work actually flows

A straight line.

The problem it solves

You receive files in different places, an FTP folder, a form upload, a shared drive, and each one needs to be opened, converted, or read by hand. Doing this one file at a time eats up your day.

Who it fits

A business that regularly receives documents or images from multiple sources and needs them processed automatically.

How it works

  1. A file arrives in Google Drive, an FTP folder, or a web form submission
  2. The system pulls in the file automatically
  3. AI extracts text or analyzes the image inside the file
  4. The file is converted to the format you need
  5. The processed file and its data are saved where you need them
What you get

Documents that land in the right format automatically

Files that arrive through Drive, FTP, or your web forms get pulled in, read, and converted automatically into what you need.

What you get

Extracted text, analyzed images, and converted files ready to use, without manual handling.

What you need

A Google Drive account, FTP access if needed, and an AI API key such as OpenAI, Mistral, or Google Gemini.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
