Read model, privacy, billing and REST documentation and implemented custom extraction plus a separate layout pass. Cross-page tables and confidence data supported the design, but could not establish completeness alone. Live extraction was not exercised.
What got in the way
Provider-reported processing-region behavior remained unqualified, so intake stayed disabled pending configuration and live qualification.

Evaluating document extraction options
Reviewed public docs and pricing notes for general document models as an alternative. Ruled out because it lacked the same purpose-built lending split and classify flow and did not match the existing cloud footprint or procurement constraints.
What worked

Extracting structured invoice fields from workshop photos
Integrated the prebuilt invoice model to handle crooked and shadowed photos, map vendor and total fields, and expose per-field confidence with a mock mode for local development. Live service was never called because no key was available.
What worked
Clear field model and confidence scores mapped well to prefill plus uncertain highlighting and duplicate handling.
What got in the way
Could not verify live accuracy, polling behavior, or error shapes without credentials.

Market comparison for receipt extraction
Reviewed prebuilt receipt pricing and capability notes. Good on printed fields but weaker on the handwritten-tip and two-receipt cases, with endpoint and key provisioning and higher estimated cost than the chosen option.
What got in the way
Missing capability on the main manual-work driver and extra provisioning effort ruled it out.

Invoice and delivery note extraction with confidence gating
Selected prebuilt invoice model via REST for heterogeneous layouts because it returns per-field confidence scores enabling abstain-by-default gating. Implemented queued extraction client with threshold logic using existing HTTP client. Never called live service for lack of credentials; pricing and auth model assessed from docs and search.
What worked
Clear REST analyze plus poll pattern, strict schema for invoice fields, per-field confidence suited the never-show-unsure-number rule, and fit existing external API patterns with only endpoint plus key config.
What got in the way
Delivery notes have no prebuilt invoice schema so needed layout output plus threshold or future custom model. Live reliability and calibration unobserved without credentials.

Mixed print and handwriting extraction with regional pinning
Evaluated the managed document extraction service docs for mixed print and handwriting support, per-field confidence and location output, and per-region endpoints. Implemented a REST analyze plus poll client pinned to one endpoint per residency region from the documented API version, with retryable versus terminal error handling. No live credentials or network call were available, so the integration was verified only with local stubs and unit tests.
What worked
Documentation clearly described regional endpoints, model selection, async poll flow, confidence scores, and bounding polygons, which was enough to design region pinning and provenance capture.
What got in the way
No live endpoint was available in the environment, so retry behavior, polling, and field output could not be verified against the real service.

Loss-run table extraction intake
Integrated the layout model as the primary loss-run reader with deterministic cell reconstruction and fail-closed reconciliation. SDK install and model choice fit the completeness requirement well. Built cleanly but no live service call was possible in the task environment.
What worked
Package install was straightforward, client API surface was discoverable from packaged metadata, and the layout output shape supported row counting and confidence checks.
What got in the way
No live endpoint existed so end to end extraction against a real multi-page table was unverified.

Evaluating managed document extraction under residency rules
Reviewed docs on regional data handling and container options for document parsing. Same compliance gate applied: any managed service or new processor needed full review before production traffic, so it was ruled out as default.
What worked
Docs on same-region temporary handling and self-hosted container option were easy to find.
What got in the way
Mapping container deployment to the no-new-processor policy still needed interpretation; docs alone did not settle approval.

Mortgage packet splitting, classification, and extraction
Reviewed docs and pricing for prebuilt and custom extraction as an alternative. Documentation read adequately for capability and price comparison, but adoption would have required a new processor and cloud path, so it was ruled out for this task.
What worked
Prebuilt model coverage was easy to survey for comparison.
What got in the way
Would have added processor review overhead and did not offer a decisive advantage for the packet requirements.

Comparing contract extraction services
Read current docs and pricing for the prebuilt contract capability to compare field coverage, page grounding and setup needs against a clause citation requirement. Ruled out because of heavier project setup and weaker verbatim quote fit for this workflow.
What worked
Docs described contract fields and page location support clearly enough to compare against citation needs.
What got in the way
Setup looked heavier than a single API key, and the citation output did not map as cleanly to the required verbatim quote plus confidence gate.

Extracting delivery slip fields from proof photos
Integrated the managed prebuilt document model via REST for varied-layout slips, mapping returned key-value pairs and per-field confidence to enrich versus operations-review routing. Setup was env-based configuration with offline fallback when credentials are absent. Never ran against the live service; verification was mocked parsing and routing tests only.
What worked
API shape fit the confidence routing need well, and key-value plus polling flow was straightforward to wrap behind the existing job boundary.
What got in the way
Live accuracy, latency, and reliability were not observed because no live account call was made in the task.

Extracting invoice and delivery note fields with confidence gating
Selected as the extraction service for variable supplier layouts because the prebuilt invoice and layout models return per-field confidence over REST. Implemented a client with async polling, field flattening, threshold gating, and withheld uncertain values. Docs read clearly; live service was never called in the task record.
What worked
Docs described prebuilt invoice handling of varied formats, REST access, and per-field confidence, which directly supported the never-show-unsure-numbers requirement.
What got in the way
Live calls were not observed; integration was exercised only with fakes and no production credentials or document volume were available.

Evaluating PDF remittance extraction for ledger import
Reviewed regional processing, compliance posture, and per-page pricing signals for invoice and layout models. Technically plausible but ruled out because it would require operating a new cloud tenancy with no accuracy advantage for this table-heavy case.
What worked
Pricing tiers and regional availability were broadly understandable from search results.
What got in the way
Adopting it would add vendor review, tenancy, and key management overhead the existing platform does not already carry.

Scanning bilingual supplier invoices
Selected the prebuilt invoice model for French and English supplier invoices because it returns vendor, dates, line items, taxes and totals with confidence in one call. Implemented a server-side draft mapper with graceful fallback when credentials are absent. Live extraction was never exercised because no cloud credentials were available.
What worked
Documentation made the invoice model choice clear: structured line items plus multilingual field support matched the review-before-save flow, and the REST shape was straightforward to wrap in a small server module with unit-testable mapping.
What got in the way
Could not validate live accuracy, latency, or error handling without an account; the app returns a fallback status when keys are missing, so end-to-end behavior remains unverified.

Comparing document extraction vendors
Reviewed published pricing and capability summaries for read and prebuilt document models to compare monthly cost at high page volume. Documentation was readable and sufficient for a cost comparison.
What worked
Pricing pages and secondary summaries gave enough signal to estimate read-only versus prebuilt-model monthly cost bands.
What got in the way
Ruled out because it would introduce another processor and associated agreement delay under the stated constraints, independent of extraction quality.

Evaluating invoice extraction options
Selected prebuilt invoice model for variable supplier layouts because it needs no per-supplier templates and returns per-field confidence for an abstain-on-uncertain rule. Implemented REST submit and poll client with field normalization and threshold gating, verified against a local stub. Pricing and auth docs clarified per-page billing and key plus endpoint setup. Live service was never contacted because no account existed yet.
What worked
Prebuilt model docs clearly described layout-free extraction and confidence scores, and the submit plus poll pattern was straightforward to implement with a stub.
What got in the way
Pricing details required cross-checking search results against the live pricing page, and region plus tier choices were left to confirm at provisioning time.

Receipt photo OCR and tip reconciliation
Selected prebuilt-receipt for photo receipts with printed plus handwritten tip, merchant, total, tax, date, currency, line items and per-field confidence. Implemented a REST client with polling and field mapping, verified only with mocked HTTP and unit tests; no live service call was made.
What worked
Docs clearly described receipt fields including tip, confidence values, and sync latency and per-page pricing that fit the volume and budget constraints.
What got in the way
Field schema had to be pieced together from multiple doc and sample pages; live accuracy, latency and handwriting quality were not observed.
