Know Your Client (KYC) onboarding in capital markets requires analysts to manually classify documents, extract structured data from heterogeneous sources, and validate compliance against complex regulatory policies. This process requires significant analyst time per client, with end-to-end onboarding often stretching to multiple weeks due to sequential handoffs. In this work, we analyze an on-boarding process and find that it comprises repeatable components well-suited to AI automation. We therefore propose a restructured workflow to be amenable to automation: we consolidate the traditional four-party process into two parties that share most of the work and can be automated together, eliminating intermediate handoffs that compound delays. To automate the remaining steps, we introduce Spectra, an AI-assisted document processing platform that combines a structured rules engine with LLM-based classification, extraction, and validation agents. The rules engine encodes compliance policy as a queryable database, enabling focused context injection that reduces token usage while improving extraction precision. Rather than a single monolithic prompt, the system decomposes document processing into isolated, auditable stages, each optimized independently and traceable to specific policy clauses. In evaluation on real KYC documents, Spectra achieves 100% classification accuracy and 89.4% extraction accuracy. Human review burden dropped by 96%.
We present a fully automated multi-agent framework for corporate due diligence and market analysis in venture capital. The system runs on an event-driven orchestration architecture, combining Large Language Models (LLMs) with real-time web retrieval to synthesize unstructured data into structured investment intelligence. A central technical contribution is a programmatic extraction pipeline that reverse-engineers the frontend-to-backend communication of the Greek Business Registry (Γ.E.MH.), querying dynamic endpoints to retrieve official financial filings that are then parsed using a layout-aware OCR extractor. A structural fallback mechanism explicitly flags data absence rather than generating unverified figures, directly targeting hallucination in financial contexts. All workflow artifacts are publicly available to support replication.
Document processing automation remains a critical challenge in enterprise environments, where traditional manual approaches are labor-intensive and error-prone. We present MADP, a multi-agent architecture that addresses the challenge of automating document processing in enterprise settings by combining deep learning-based classification and parsing with large language model extraction, while maintaining accuracy through selective human validation. Our system integrates five specialized agents--Classificator, Splitter, Parser, Extraction, and Validator--with a Human-in-the-Loop (HITL) mechanism and a novel Prompt Fine Tuning with Feedback Inheritance (PFTFI) approach. The operational analysis on a production use-case scenario of 100,000 invoices per year indicates a potential reduction of Full-Time Equivalent (FTE) requirements by approximately 70%. Production deployment on 955 real-world documents processed through January 2026 achieves a 97.0% full-pipeline automation rate, with only 3% requiring non-AI fallback. Ablation evaluation on a stratified 100-document subset (5 documents per each of 20 supplier/document-type categories) demonstrates that the full MADP configuration with Human-in-the-Loop supervision attains 98.5% document-level accuracy. Additionally, we present a comprehensive sustainability analysis showing that our hybrid AI+HITL approach reduces CO2 emissions by 69%, energy consumption by 69%, and water usage by 63% compared to traditional manual processing. Benchmark comparisons of multiple LLM backends (Granite-Docling, Mistral-Small, DeepSeek-OCR) provide practical insights for deployment in production environments.
Structured information extraction from long, multilingual scanned financial documents is a core requirement in industrial KYC and compliance workflows. These documents are typically non machine readable, noisy, and visually heterogeneous. They usually span dozens of pages while containing only sparse task relevant information. Although recent vision-language models achieve strong benchmark performance, directly applying them end to end to full financial reports often leads to unreliable extraction under real world conditions. We present a multistage extraction framework that integrates image preprocessing, multilingual OCR, hybrid page-level retrieval, and compact VLM-based structured extraction. The design separates page localization from multimodal reasoning, enabling more accurate extraction from complex multipage documents. We evaluated the framework on 120 production KYC documents comprising about 3000 multilingual scanned pages. Across multiple OCR-VLM combinations, the proposed pipeline consistently outperforms direct PDF-to-VLM baselines, improving field-level accuracy by up to 31.9 percentage points. The best configuration, PaddleOCR with MiniCPM2.6, achieves 87.27 percent accuracy. Ablation studies show that page-level retrieval is the dominant factor in performance improvements, particularly for complex financial statements and non-English documents.
