The winner of a tender to perform appraisal on more 5000 standard archive boxes of records held at The Australian Antarctic Division (AAD) Head Office in Kingston, Tasmania will open each box with an equal dose of excitement and trepidation, as the AAD has no idea of the number of files contained within these boxes, or the number of pages.

The Intelligent Document Processing (IDP)) market is going through an interesting phase - a lot of new players have entered the market and all of them make similar claims about their AI and use of Machine Learning Technologies. We have worked with customers who were led to believe that they are using an AI platform for IDP but found out very late in the process that the product used very minimal machine learning. Just enough to give them a check in the box that they are using ML but hardly enough to make a difference for the customers.
