What We Do
Lazarus applies artificial intelligence and computer vision to develop products and custom solutions to optimize processes. Organizations leverage our APIs to get data out of PDFs to where it needs to be, faster and more accurately than ever before: RikAI is a large language model that extracts data from any document without training. Regardless of type, format, or language, our advanced document understanding API can contextualize information, analyze layouts, and find answers to natural language questions across any number of documents. Industries from insurance through to legal are using RikAI to use their documents intuitively. Upload any document and ask almost any question to get the correct answer without training. To improve results, instead of increasing a “training set”, rewrite questions until they consistently yield the best results. Lazarus Forms is a general data extraction API that makes cluttered, unstructured PDFs as usable as any JSON. Our form extractor pulls entities, tables, and key value pairs from documents without example forms or training. Recognizing both handwritten and typed text, Lazarus Forms extracts more data and requires even less human intervention. We streamline data intake and transfer processes associated with various types of documents; claims forms, new patient intake, attending physician statements, adjuster reports, lab results, ACORDs, and anything that can fit in a PDF.
