Receive & extract
Accept a supplier invoice, keep the original document and extract fields such as supplier, invoice number, date, line items and total.
A product concept for operations teams that spend too much time copying information from documents into business systems.
An invoice lands in an inbox. Someone opens it, copies the supplier and line items, checks the totals and enters the same details into another system. Exceptions disappear into email threads.
Relay is our proposed response: one reviewable workflow from document intake to approved data, starting with supplier invoices for small and growing operations teams.
Relay is a proposed product, not a live service. We’re defining the first use case and the AWS architecture, and seeking input from teams working with document-heavy processes.
There is no production processing or customer upload service on this website.
Help shape the first pilotThe first release would focus on a narrow workflow that teams can review, understand and trust.
Accept a supplier invoice, keep the original document and extract fields such as supplier, invoice number, date, line items and total.
Check required fields and totals. Present uncertain values alongside the source document for a reviewer to correct or approve.
Export reviewed data as CSV or deliver it through a configured integration, with an audit trail and visible delivery status.
The proposed architecture separates document storage, extraction, review and delivery, so each step can be tested and improved independently.
PROPOSED ARCHITECTURE · NOT YET DEPLOYEDAmazon Cognito for access, API Gateway and Lambda for requests, Amazon S3 for documents.
Amazon Textract for invoice fields, Step Functions for workflow, SNS and SQS for job completion.
DynamoDB for workflow state, reviewed exports and integrations, CloudWatch for operational visibility.
Interview operations teams and agree on a document type, required fields and review process.
Evaluate extraction against synthetic or explicitly permitted documents and record field-level accuracy.
Test tenant isolation, failure recovery and review time before allowing real business use.
Track corrections, processing time and cost per document to decide what to improve next.
