Once converted, a multimodal LLM is employed to extract content, efficiently preserving the context and integrity of the document.
  • Content Extraction for Other File Types: For other document types, such as text files, Word documents, and PowerPoint presentations, the agent extracts content directly.

Outcome:

• Streamlined Document Handling: Automatic document type identification allows the agent to apply

Step 3: Output Generation

Upon successfuly extracting the content from submitted documents, the agent proceeds to generate and display the output.

Key Tasks:

• Output Generation: The agent presents the extracted content on the interface in a string format. This alows users to easily review and utilize the extracted information.
• Handle Unsupported File Types: If a document is submitted in an unsupported format, the agent notifies users, prompting them to take further action. This ensures that al submissions are accounted for and appropriately managed.

Outcome:

• Precise and Contextual Content Extraction: The outcome of this stage is the accurate and contextualy intact extraction of content from supported document formats, ready for immediate use or further processing.

Step 4: Continuous Improvement Through Human Feedback

To refine and enhance the accuracy of the content extraction, human feedback is integrated into the system, alowing continuous improvement of the agent's performance.

Key Tasks:

• Feedback Collection: Users review the extracted data and provide feedback on its accuracy, relevance, and any necessary refinements. They can also specify elements that should be emphasized or ignored in future extractions.
• Feedback Analysis and Learning: The agent analyzes feedback to identify prevalent extraction issues and areas of contextual alignment, pinpointing opportunities for refining its content extraction process.
