AI-Powered Virtual Workforce

                            What if a virtual workforce could
                            run part of your operations?
 An AI-powered, virtual workforce, able to emulate many types of human worker
 activities, can complement the human workforce by:
 - automating high-volume complex* repetitive tasks,
 - augmenting decision-making with collective experience and data insights,
 - scaling new, innovative business services.

                                                  * Involving semi-structured or unstructured content, interactions, judgement calls

SVA – AUSTRIAN
SOCIAL SECURITY
Classification of scanned letters
For this client, 500,000 letters are categorized
manually each year. The letters are scanned into
PDFs, and with OCR the corresponding text is
extracted. This text is classified into one of 56
categories. Based on this categorization, further
processing is carried out by the responsible
employees.

•     500,000 LETTERS
•     AUTOMATED TEXT CLASSIFICATION
•     AVERAGE ACCURACIES OF 83%

MAJOR INSURANCE
COMPANY
Classification of emails with high
precision requirements
Client required classification of 4M annual incoming
customer emails in 3 different languages. Because of
far-reaching consequences in case of error, the client
required a precision of 98%. The model was trained on
400,000 emails. Language was detected, and OCR
was applied on the email’s attachments. This enables
fully automatic classification of 4M emails each
year, with high accuracy.
•     3 DIFFERENT LANGUAGES WITH
      AUTOMATIC LANGUAGE DETECTION
•     ACCURACY OF 98%+
•     4 MILLION MESSAGES CAN BE
      PROCESSED EACH YEAR

EUROPEAN LAND REGISTRY
DEEP LEARNING PROVES IT’S THE
SMART WAY TO SEE HOW THE LAND
LIES
We helped a European land registry build a proof of concept to show how deep learning
could help their surveyors transform the laborious process of updating land records. By
applying advanced deep learning algorithms to satellite imagery, we were able to train a
model capable of alerting surveyors to undocumented changes with over 90% accuracy—in
close to real time. In a single pilot study it uncovered over 16 extensions and over 22
structures the authorities knew nothing about—amounting to over €6 million in uncharged
land tax.

                                                                    OVER 90% ACCURACY
