Our take
Normally, extracting information from documents with AI requires that AI to be trained on the specific type of form it will be dealing with. Lazarus AI delivers RikAI, a large language model capable of extracting data from any document without training.
Lazarus' advanced document understanding API can contextualize information, analyze layouts and find answers to natural language questions across any number of documents. The company also offers Lazarus Forms, a general data extraction API that makes unstructured PDFs more usable.
The potential time-saves make Lazurus AI a great option in industries such as insurance and legal, where document processing takes up a large chunk of operations. The company has raised funding from WaveFx that will be used to expand operations and its development efforts.
