Solving the Challenge of Unstructured Data
If you work in a modern organisation, you’ll know just how many documents flow through your business every day. Contracts, reports, scanned forms, emails – they’re full of valuable information, but getting at that information is rarely straightforward. Many teams still rely on manual review, which is slow, costly, and often inconsistent. As the volume of unstructured data continues to grow, so does the challenge of keeping up.
We built the Document Mining IP Brickbuilder to help organisations address this problem directly. Our aim was to make it simple to turn unstructured documents into structured, actionable insights, without the need for large teams of data entry staff or lengthy, bespoke projects. We wanted to provide a solution that is quick to deploy, straightforward to use, and robust enough to meet real business needs.
How It Works
The Document Mining IP is built entirely on the Databricks Data Intelligence Platform. It uses MLFlow 3.0 to manage and deploy models, Unity Catalog to ensure secure and governed access to data, Databricks Workflows to orchestrate the processing steps, and Model Serving to deliver real-time results. These components work together to provide a scalable and secure foundation for document intelligence.
The solution supports a wide range of document formats including PDFs, Word files, and scanned images. It applies large language models to extract useful information such as named entities, relationships, and summaries. The results are returned in structured formats like tables, JSON, or vector stores, which can be used for reporting, search, or integration into operational systems. For teams that prefer a visual interface, we’ve included optional components built with Streamlit or Dash, allowing users to explore and interact with the extracted data.
Designed for Real Teams
Technology is only part of the story. We designed the Document Mining IP to be practical and accessible, with clear documentation, ready-to-use notebooks, and no need for access to your sensitive data during demonstrations. It has already been deployed with several customers and typically delivers value in under two weeks.
Our goal is to help compliance, audit, and operational teams save time, reduce risk, and focus on higher-value work. Whether you’re overwhelmed by the volume of documents or simply looking for a smarter way to manage them, this accelerator is built to help.
