Build and Run an Intelligent Document Processing (IDP) System in the Cloud

An automated Intelligent Document Processing (IDP) system can be built in the cloud to handle requests by processing emails and their attachments for personal information. This system leverages a combination of AWS services, using Textract for optical character recognition (OCR) and Amazon Bedrock's AI capabilities to understand the content. The workflow automatically ingests documents like passports and bank statements, extracts the raw text, and then uses AI to classify the document type and extract key personal information. AWS Lambda functions and Step Functions orchestrate this entire process, from fetching the initial email attachments to storing the final extracted data in an S3 bucket.
