Netfira's approach: AI that accelerates, not replaces

Netfira applies AI in document processing where it delivers the most value: helping your teams build automation quickly and confidently.

Transparent

Every mapping, rule and workflow is visible and adjustable. You always know why a document was processed a certain way.

Deterministic

Once a configuration is approved, automation behaves consistently — no shifting behaviour, no confidence scores, no retraining loops.

Human guided

AI assists during setup. Humans validate. Automation takes over. Your experts remain decision-makers, not passive reviewers.

A strong foundation for automation

At the core of the Netfira Platform is connections:
clear, structured definitions for how each supplier’s documents are interpreted and processed.

With AI assistance, teams can create and update connections instantly — delivering stable, repeatable outcomes across all trading partners.

The business impact of automating the entire document journey

Reduce errors

Minimise costly errors and delays by removing the need for manual data entry across transaction documents and workflows

Increase speed

Accelerate document handling by enabling straight-through processing that extracts, validates, and transfers data in just minutes

Lower costs

Reduce operational costs by freeing up staff from repetitive tasks, allowing them to focus on more strategic responsibilities

Strengthen compliance

Enhance compliance and accountability with automatic audit trails that track every change, action, and transaction from start to finish

Not all AI is suitable for business-critical documents

A lot of “AI automation” focuses solely on reading documents using probabilistic models. These models can shift over time, require lengthy training and introduce risk when outcomes must be consistent.

Extraction on its own doesn’t deliver operational reliability. Documents that trigger spend, fulfilment and payment need automation that is stable, governed and fully transparent.

Unpredictable outcomes

Requires ongoing supervision

What is the difference between AI document processing and intelligent document processing (IDP)?

 They describe the same technology stack. See our detailed guide on Intelligent Document Processing.

OCR converts images to text. AI document processing adds context, validation and system integration. Read more in What is Optical Character Recognition?

 Yes. While AI document processing vastly improves operational efficeny, a human-in-the-loop function provides transparency and helps the model learn from exceptions.

Order confirmations, invoices, sales orders, contracts, shipping notes and any other semi-structured or unstructured file.
The implementation timeline depends on several factors, including the complexity of existing systems and the scope of the solution. However, an IDP solution can typically be implemented within a few weeks.
