Customizing document processes with the Konfuzio SDK

For documentation about how to train and evaluate document understanding AIs, as well as use a trained AI in the Konfuzio Server web interface, please see our Konfuzio Guide.

If you need to add custom functionality to the document processes of the Konfuzio Server, the Konfuzio SDK is the tool for you. You can customize pipelines for automatic document Categorization, File Splitting, and Extraction. These processes allow to split stack scans, categorize and extract information from the Documents.

Note

Customizing document AI pipelines with the Konfuzio SDK requires a self-hosted installation of the Konfuzio Server.

Other use cases around documents

You can also use the Konfuzio SDK for other Document-related purposes like filling in the PDF forms via the generator. For further information, check out our tutorial on how to create a PDF form generator.
