Improving extraction accuracy doesn’t have to mean writing complex rules or maintaining rigid templates. Docsumo offers flexible, intelligent ways to increase document data accuracy—whether you're dealing with invoices, forms, receipts, or multi-layout documents.

Here are some of the most effective methods:

Prompt-Based AI Extraction

Use natural language instructions to tell Docsumo what data you want, without the need for pre-training or manual configuration.

Why use it?

• Ideal for new or unpredictable document types
• Fast to implement—no coding or template setup required
• Great for extracting edge-case fields or handling documents with varying layouts

How to use:

1. Navigate to the Field Setup panel by clicking on "Field Setup"

   

2. Select a specific field, for example, Account name. In the prompt input, write a prompt that aligns with your data extraction needs. This defines what the model should look for. A well-crafted prompt helps the model focus and perform more accurately, especially with varied document layouts.

   

3. After writing the prompt, click on Apply and then Save.

   

4. Docsumo processes your prompt and auto-fills the relevant data

💡 You can test and refine prompts iteratively to get better results quickly.

Continuous Learning

Docsumo learns from your corrections over time, improving extraction accuracy automatically without requiring explicit rule writing.

Why use it?

• Best for recurring document types (e.g., vendor invoices, claims, applications)
• Minimizes manual review as the model improves
• Adapts to your specific documents and workflows

How to use:

1. To further improve accuracy, enable AI-assisted continuous Learning. Navigate to Configure

2. In the Extraction tab, turn on the AI extractor and select a type of model

3. Proceed to enable Continuous Learning

   

4. Correct any extraction mistakes directly in Docsumo's Review Screen

5. Docsumo updates its internal learning model to perform better on similar documents in the future

💡 The more documents you process and correct, the smarter and more accurate your extractions become.

By combining prompt-based AI extraction with continuous learning, you can achieve both speed and long-term accuracy, tailored to your specific use case.
