Parashift/Document classification
Capability · Classification

Document classification with AI, without a template per sender.

Every mailroom holds dozens of document types across hundreds of layouts. Parashift recognises the type per page by content, with over 400 preconfigured document types and your own types without programming.

The process today

Sorting is manual work before anything is read.

Before a document can be processed, someone has to know what it is. In most organisations a person does that: leafing through stacks, inserting separator sheets, assigning documents to the right queues.

Template-based systems only help while sender and layout are known. Every new invoice layout, every new form means a ticket, a rule, an approval. The maintenance grows faster than the benefit.

What it covers

What the classification does.

400+ preconfigured document types

Invoices, delivery notes, contracts, forms, identity documents and official post are ready to use. Activate instead of train.

Your own types without code

Describe the type, check it against examples, activate it. No development ticket and no rule set per sender.

Classification per page

A stack is not filed as a whole. Every page gets its type, so mixed inbound breaks apart cleanly.

Confidence per decision

Every assignment carries a confidence value. You set the threshold for automatic processing.

Human in the loop

Below the threshold the case goes to the review interface instead of into the booking. Built for mailroom and BPO teams.

Document Swarm Learning®

The model learns from corrections across the whole platform. New layouts are often known before they reach you.

How it works

From stack to sorted inbound.

01 · INTAKE

Any format

PDF, scan, fax, email attachment or portal upload, in any order.

02 · SEPARATION

Document boundaries

The stack is split into individual documents by content, without separator sheets or barcodes.

03 · CLASSIFICATION

Type per page

Every page receives its document type together with a confidence value.

04 · ROUTING

Right department

The item goes to the queue, workflow or target system, unclear cases go to review.

Parashift project experience

Classification is one building block.

Data extraction, document separation and the digital mailroom build on it: first know what a document is, then read it and hand it on.

Frequently asked

Document classification, answered briefly.

What does AI classification do differently from classic methods?
Classic methods match a document against stored templates or keywords. Parashift evaluates the content of a page and derives the document type from it. A layout that has never been seen therefore works on the first run.
How many document types are available?
Over 400 types are preconfigured and can be activated individually. Your own types are added without programming. Large accounts run up to 600 types at the same time.
How do I create my own document type?
Through the interface: name the type, define the fields to be recognised, check it against real examples, activate it. It needs neither code nor a project.
What happens with an uncertain assignment?
Every assignment carries a confidence value. Below your threshold the document goes to the review interface instead of being routed incorrectly.
Does this work on mixed stacks without separator sheets?
Yes. Document boundaries are detected by content. A stack of forty mixed pages breaks apart into the documents it contains, each with its own type.
How does the result reach our systems?
Through a documented REST API or webhooks. What is handed over is document type, page range, confidence value and the extracted fields.
