# Structity

*/Startups/Structity*

## Startup Overview

The extraction engine transforms unstructured documents directly into normalized relational tables. It ingests raw, variable-format files like PDFs and images, instantly extracting and mapping distinct data entities into query-ready database structures without requiring pre-defined templates.

Data engineering and operations teams face constant bottlenecks when converting messy inbound paperwork into usable data. Legacy tools like AWS Textract output loose key-value pairs, while outsourced manual data entry introduces delays and errors, forcing internal staff to manually clean, validate, and route the extracted information into core systems.

This architecture replaces human-in-the-loop verification with a schema-agnostic, fully deterministic mapping model. Unlike Scale AI or outsourced BPOs that rely on human reviewers to achieve accuracy, the engine parses unstructured text into strict relational schemas with absolute certainty. Teams receive immediately structured, normalized tables ready for direct database ingestion, eliminating the manual validation bottleneck entirely.

## Startup Offer

**Proof**:
- Targeting 100x faster document-to-database times compared to manual BPO data entry
- Aiming to eliminate 100% of human-in-the-loop verification bottlenecks for standard invoice and contract parsing
- Designed to achieve strict deterministic accuracy on unstructured PDFs where standard OCR fails
**Tiers**:
- Name: Developer Sandbox · Price: ~$0.02–$0.06 per document · Inclusions: Self-serve API access, standard schema libraries, community support, and up to 10,000 documents per month.
- Name: Production Volume · Price: ~$0.01–$0.03 per document + ~$500/mo base · Inclusions: Volume processing up to 500,000 documents per month, SLA-backed uptime, and intended connectors for major cloud data warehouses.
- Name: Enterprise Dedicated · Price: Target ~$25k–$60k/yr commitment · Inclusions: High-volume throughput limits, custom schema enforcement mapping, dedicated tenant deployment options, and premium support.
**Guarantee**: If the parsed data output fails to structurally map to your defined relational schema, the API processing cost for that specific document batch is automatically refunded.
**Business Function**: ProvideService
**Objection Handlers**:
- Objection: Unstructured formats change too often to map reliably. Rebuttal: Structity targets schema-agnostic extraction, meaning it maps varied geometries dynamically to your fixed relational target without relying on brittle templates.
- Objection: We already use AWS Textract for OCR. Rebuttal: Textract provides raw text and basic key-values; Structity is built to deliver fully normalized, database-ready tables requiring no secondary engineering or cleanup.
- Objection: AI data extraction hallucinates values. Rebuttal: The system is engineered around strict deterministic constraints rather than open-ended generation, designed to block out-of-schema hallucinated rows entirely.

## Startup Proof Points

_Illustrative — target and order-of-magnitude estimate figures, not an achieved track record (this Thing is concept-stage)._

**Pilot Goals**:
- 14-day shadow pilot processing 10,000 historical invoices parallel to manual teams to prove the deterministic extraction matches or exceeds human accuracy without templates
- 30-day API integration sprint processing up to 500,000 documents to demonstrate successful mapping of highly variable document geometries to a single fixed relational target
- Live-batch error testing over a 7-day period to validate the automatic refund guarantee triggers flawlessly if parsed data fails to structurally map to the defined schema
**Target Metrics**:
- Target: 100x faster document-to-database processing latency compared to manual BPO data entry
- Aim: 100% elimination of human-in-the-loop verification bottlenecks for standard invoice and contract parsing
- Target: 0% schema-mapping failure rate caused by out-of-schema AI hallucinations
- Aim: 100% adherence to defined relational target schemas for all processed document batches
**Target Case Studies**:
- Mid-market logistics provider aiming to replace outsourced manual BPO data entry with automated deterministic extraction, transforming highly variable bill-of-lading PDFs directly into their fixed relational database schema
- Enterprise accounts payable department targeting the complete elimination of human-in-the-loop verification for vendor invoices by achieving zero-hallucination, schema-enforced data mapping
- Commercial real estate firm looking to extract unstructured lease contract clauses into a strict tabular format without relying on brittle OCR templates or requiring secondary data engineering cleanup
**Testimonial Targets**:
- Data Engineering Lead: Expressing relief that they no longer need to write secondary cleanup scripts for raw OCR output because the data arrives fully normalized and database-ready
- Director of Operations: Highlighting the immediate cost savings and speed benefits of shifting from a headcount-heavy BPO contract to a scalable, usage-metered extraction API
- Chief Compliance Officer: Validating the system's deterministic constraints that successfully block hallucinated values from entering financial databases

## Startup Top Risks

**Risks**:
- Severity: existential · Description: The deterministic extraction model fails to maintain zero-hallucination accuracy on heavily degraded or non-standard PDFs, invalidating the core value proposition over human-in-the-loop competitors. · Mitigation Status: unmitigated
- Severity: high · Description: Foundation model providers release advanced native structured output features that directly cannibalize the specialized document parsing market. · Mitigation Status: unmitigated
- Severity: moderate · Description: Enterprise compliance policies mandate human review for sensitive document processing, blocking adoption of fully automated extraction pipelines. · Mitigation Status: in-progress
- Severity: low · Description: Ingesting thousands of multi-page documents concurrently triggers rate limits with underlying AI providers, causing data processing SLA violations. · Mitigation Status: in-progress
