The Client
Elchemy
Elchemy — a chemicals exporter connecting global buyers with Indian manufacturers. Founded during COVID by IIT-Bombay, IIT-Delhi, and IIM-Ahmedabad alumni, with access to 25+ contract manufacturing sites.
The Challenge
Manual Document Conversion Draining Hours and Introducing Errors
Elchemy spent 2+ hours every week manually converting and formatting non-standardized manufacturer documents into company-branded templates. Error rates hovered around 10% — far above the acceptable 1% threshold. Documents arrived in wildly different formats from multiple manufacturers, often as blurry scans or photographs.
What We Built
AI-Powered Document Standardization Pipeline
1. Document Upload & Type Selection
Upload interface with document type classification, supporting PDFs, scanned images, and photographs.
2. OCR Extraction
Amazon Textract processes documents, preserving tables, images, forms, and text structure even from low-quality scans.
3. AI Standardization
GPT-4 converts extracted content into predefined templates, resolving ambiguous structures and filling in missing information.
4. Side-by-Side Editor
Preview interface showing original document alongside extracted content for quick human validation and correction.
5. Branded Output
Automatic company letterhead, headers, and footers applied to generate production-ready formatted documents.
