How the work actually flows

The problem it solves

New documents land in your Drive folder and someone has to read through them to figure out what companies are mentioned and what the document is actually about. Doing this by hand for every file is slow and easy to put off.

Who it fits

Teams that regularly receive documents and need a quick summary and named-entity list without reading each one fully.

How it works

  1. Starts when a new document is added to Google Drive
  2. Extracts the text content from the document
  3. Identifies the organizations mentioned and generates a summary
  4. Filters to high-confidence organization matches
  5. Emails you the summary and organization list
What you get

Document takeaways without reading the whole file

You get an emailed summary of new documents along with a list of the organizations they mention.

What you get

An email with a document summary and a list of organizations mentioned in it.

What you need

A Google Drive account, a Gmail account, a Foxit developer account, and a Diffbot account.

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.
