Introduction

Pre-defined and custom solutions

UiPath® Document UnderstandingTM provides a variety of pre-defined solutions designed to help you extract and classify information from common document types. These solutions are built on a set of pre-trained models specifically trained to extract information from a standard set of document types. Combined with our pre-built industry templates, they can handle typical use cases with minimal configuration.

For a complete list of pre-built models, check the Out-of-the-box pre-trained ML packages.

However, if our pre-built solutions don't meet your requirements or if you want to refine one of our existing models, you can use our model training experience based on active learning to create your own custom Document Understanding solution.

Creating your own solution

Creating a Document UnderstandingTM solution is a two-step process:
  • Configuring and building models
  • Consuming models through automations

Building models

Document Understanding provides a set of AI-based solutions for document processing. These solutions include classification and extraction. To learn more about how to configure and build your own custom Document Understanding solution, follow the instructions from the Building models section of this guide.

Consuming models

Once you have trained, tested, and deployed your Document Understanding models, you can create an automation using them. You have the option to use either our robotic process automation (RPA) activities or APIs. To determine which set of activities is best suited for your particular use case, and to learn how to select them, check the Consuming models page.
