Selected work
Multimodal Invoice & Receipt Extraction
E-commerce finance operationsBuilt a vision-language pipeline that reads invoices and receipts arriving as photos and scanned PDFs, pairing OCR with a Claude and GPT-4o vision prompt and Pydantic schemas. Field-level accuracy rose from 71% to 94% and manual review time per document fell by more than half.
Grounded Document QA over Scanned Contracts
B2B SaaS / contract managementDesigned a multimodal RAG system that retrieves page images, tables, and text so users can ask questions across long scanned contracts. Groundedness scoring with citations cut unsupported answers to under 3%, and answers linked back to the exact source page for auditability.
