No-code Intelligent Document Processing (IDP) platform enables innovative digitalisation
Platform overview
Metamaze is capable of ingesting multiple document types, from all common sources and in all common file formats. Whether it is an Office 365 document, email, or scanned PDF, Metamaze will interpret the contents of the documents with an above-human precision and speed. The extracted values are sent back to your back-end in a structured format using API, RPA or any of our standard connector integrations.
Optional human validation can be configured depending on the accuracy level you need.


Configurable and extensible pipeline system
The brains in the background
Where Metamaze makes the biggest difference is in their AI expertise. Users only need half the time and effort to reach the same automation results as competitors in the Intelligent Document Processing (IDP) market that lack the “brains in the background” to achieve the same results.
As it stands, competitors fall short in the most important aspect: how to build custom machine learning models improved by the data of the clients. In this regard, Metamaze software is distinguished by its proprietary deep learning algorithm that requires only a few exceptional documents to be annotated to gain the most learnings possible. In essence, one only needs 50% of the documents to reach the same accuracy in Straight Through Processing (STP) as other IDP platforms. As a result, AI will free up office workers to do more value-adding activities across all departments.

This team, considered to be at the crest of European talent, is behind some of the latest breakthroughs in the field of IDP, including state-of-the-art multi-modal transformer-based deep learning algorithms enabling the Metamaze technology to process both simple as well as complex and unstructured documents.
Blending multiple domains in AI, such as computer vision, the Metamaze team keeps benchmarking and performing bleeding-edge R&D to continuously stay ahead of the competition and give our users the unique capabilities to extract, understand and process entire documents, including text, dates, currencies, tables, signatures, stamps, page numbers and much more.

Reducing the cost of annotation through active learning
Introducing Metamaze’s Optimal Document Selection Strategy (MODSS), only those documents that will improve the quality of the solution the fastest as suggested for annotation.
This significantly reduces the cost by over 50% in terms of annotation-effort, compared to other solutions, while obtaining the same level of quality.
This breakthrough in active learning has been responsible for drastically cutting short the cost and time it takes to go to production.

Intelligent data quality improvement
We use advanced machine learning techniques by continuously monitoring which documents contain annotation anomalies that risk degrading the overall quality and accuracies of your solution.
This intelligent detection mechanism feeds into Metamaze’s advanced Quality Assurance module, enabling to define custom review tasks to validate problematic entities or documents with a human in the loop.
This approach protects your solution against model drift, degraded quality assurance, and more.

Multilingual by design
Using deep learning and transfer learning, the Natural Language Processing capabilities of the Metamaze solution have been revolutionized to support multiple languages.
This cross-lingual transfer enables the capacity to learn multiple languages and generalize across languages.
In this way, the Metamaze solution reduces the cost of maintaining the quality and accuracy of supported languages by over 60% compared to others.
REMARK: At this moment Metamaze only supports Western-European languages. Other languages are planned. Don’t hesitate to reach out for more information on this.

Full end-to-end control
A unique no-code interface to control manage your intelligent document processing solution
Easy and granular configuration
Allows administrators to configure the pipeline, enable input and output security settings, add new use cases, define entities that need to be extracted, customize the accuracy thresholds for classification and extraction of entities, and modify business validation rules, create label patterns and manage user access controls.
Allows managers to upload the documents by batches, observe dashboards and human worker performance, label, and train AI models, perform quality assurance tasks.
Allows labelers and human validation operators to annotate and validate the data.
All this from within one single, user-friendly user interface.

Business-enablement for any type of use-case
Metamaze does not confine you to work with a pre-defined set of documents or use-cases. Instead, we let the business-user enjoy the unrestricted freedom of processing virtually any type of document over the Metamaze IDP platform.
We are able to do this by offering our users a unique and user-friendly user interface that doesn’t require AI or development skills to configure, release or maintain your solution.
If you don’t want to start building your solution from scratch, you can rely on a continuously expanding library of document model templates that will get you started. To even further granulate your unprecedented levels of control, you can configure all threshold settings, enabling even better control over the required quality of document classification.
Transparently manage your processing pipeline
From training your model, all the way to the actual processing of your documents in a production environment, you are able to configure and manage every step of the way.
Using Metamaze’s unique granularity and radical transparency of its model training and processing pipeline, it gives its users a closer look at what’s happening under the hood, while remaining user friendly.
While this enables business users to better engage with other departments in their organization, it ensures the user to remain fully and continuously informed about what parts of the IDP solution need attention.
Control and support any type of information
Metamaze is able to identify, interpret and extract any kind of text, image, and handwritten information. As the user is capable to define custom entities and entity classes (text or image), with any kind of parsing and validation rules, for any type of document, a full and complete set of robust entities can be tailored to any and every use-case.
Furthermore, Metamaze introduces an advanced set of entity-features to support the parsing of more complex documents.
As such, we support composite entities to interpret tabular fields, such as order lines or other tables, while enabling to aggregate entity values gives way to a novel approach for collecting one or more related entities in an intelligent manner.

Data validation and enrichment using business rules
At Metamaze we understand your information isn’t isolated, and how proper processing of information is subject to validation of a business context.
Therefore, we enable our users to define and set business rules to validate entities through an easy-to-use interface, as to enforce sets of validation rules before sending the data to external services.
But even more complex validations can be extended by adding metadata from your own IT systems and databases. This level of enrichment and validation of both data and metadata leverages the quality of the Metamaze IDP solution with other business and backend systems within your organization.

Data and model quality
Continuously improve performance and quality by managing a unique blend of artificial intelligence and human validation
Advanced data and model management
Metamaze supports your organizational context and offers each and every team member a powerful toolset to build, train and manage the data and models that support your document processing solution.
Metamaze enables its users to track, compare, monitor, and optimize model development, from training all the way into production.

This level of advanced data and model management ensures your organization is always and transparently in control over the quality and performance of your Metamaze overall solution.
Supporting fast and easy data labeling
As the quality of the model is directly linked to the quality of data labeling, Metamaze continuously aims to improve the way data labeling is done.
By using artificial intelligence, we continuously push the boundaries for optimal labeling, through means of predictive labeling and automatically detecting wrong annotations.
Being able to manage data labeling guidelines to facilitate the data entry users with step-by-step instructions, has greatly reduced the error-rate for our customers, while increasing the efficiency and effectiveness of labeling. Support for multiple monitors, as well as a set of annotation keyboard-shortcuts further increases the efficiency of labeling and data-input.
Increasing automation through human validation
Metamaze enables various levels of automated validation, such as business rules, but also enables you to set a fine-grained granularity in quality thresholds in order to support a human-in-the-loop process for manual validation.
You can configure your project so that a human must always intervene at a certain step in your process or choose to have a straight-through processing pipeline without any human validation whatsoever.
Metamaze is capable of supporting any degree of human intervention you find desirable for your project, while using the feedback from the human-in-the-loop process as input data for the deep learning models, so you don’t have to solve the same problem twice.
Using a blend of AI and humans, our customers reach unprecedented levels of quality in record times. The interface displays the confidence levels for classification and extracted entities that failed to meet the defined thresholds, highlights the entities that violate business rules or fields with incorrect/missing data, and allows business users to manage the work queue of processed documents.
Advanced quality assurance
Metamaze’s advanced Quality Assurance module defines intelligent tasks to validate problematic entities or documents where a human in the loop was used.
Using Artificial Intelligence, Metamaze assists the QA operator by automatically prioritizing what problematic documents have the biggest impact in augmenting the overall quality of the model.
