That many documents would span all the way from Madison, WI to the International Space Station (with a couple of miles to spare, too!)
Our products have evolved over the course of our history. We’ve been able to use the lessons we’ve learned working in healthcare capturing data to strengthen our offering for government redaction and indexing.
So now, we offer an automated redaction solution that can route your documents where they need to go, achieve accuracy rates of over 99%, and protect peoples’ identities.

Automated Data Extraction: Data extraction is more than just delivering data to where it needs to be. It's finding more accurate data to create better treatment decisions. It’s freeing up data entry staff. It’s allowing for faster diagnoses. We’re proud of saving healthcare organizations money, but what we really value is allowing healthcare professionals to be able to spend more time with their patients, and less time searching for data.

Automated Document Classification and Indexing: Our intelligent platform is able to recognize and categorize all types of incoming documents by content type, and automate the extraction of relevant index data per document type. The process of extracting all relevant index data allows Extract to more intelligently and consistently route documents to desired levels within a database, electronic medical record (EMR), land records system, court system, enterprise resource planning (ERP), document management system (such as OnBase), or any other downstream system.

First, to our employees, early on, we recognized that we had the right idea. Over time, the right people—our employees—have helped Extract grow and thrive. Our company has developed a unique culture—one that is driven by a team of talented people whose personalities and skills complement one another. Many businesses fail to consider the big picture when it comes to individual hiring. Here we do not hire someone based on what they can do for us tomorrow, next week, or this quarter. We really try to understand how they fit into the business long term.
Secondly, Extract wouldn’t be where we are today without the support of our customers. We are so appreciative of our clients for their trust and continued support. Thank you for partnering with us over the past 25 years. We have all grown together while sharing a fun and incredibly exciting ride. We are honored to celebrate our 25th anniversary with you, and we look forward to many more successful years together.
