Processing
Extract. Convert. Load.
From raw chaos to searchable, standardized records.
Documents arrive in every format imaginable — ZIP archives full of scanned images, emails with nested attachments, spreadsheets, Word docs, handwritten notes photographed on a phone. The ETL pipeline handles all of it, transforming raw inputs into clean, searchable, standardized PDFs ready for classification.
Recursive Unpacking
Archives within archives within emails. ZIP, TAR, GZip, BZip2, EML, MSG, and winmail.dat containers are recursively unpacked to their constituent leaf files. No nesting depth is too deep. Every file is extracted, catalogued, and traced back to its original container with full provenance.
Universal Format Conversion
Images, HTML, Markdown, plain text, CSV, SVG, DOCX, XLSX, PowerPoint, and legacy Office formats — all converted to high-fidelity searchable PDFs. The conversion pipeline preserves formatting, handles multi-page documents, and applies OCR to scanned content so every word becomes searchable.
Email Deconstruction
Emails aren’t just messages — they’re containers. The ETL pipeline separates the email body, headers, metadata, and every attachment into individual processable units. Inline images are extracted. Forwarded chains are unwound. winmail.dat (TNEF) payloads are decoded. Nothing is lost in translation.
Intelligent Annotation
As files pass through the pipeline, each is annotated with format metadata, conversion confidence scores, page counts, and processing timestamps. Files that need special handling — password-protected archives, corrupted images, unsupported formats — are flagged for human review rather than silently dropped.
