# AI Document Intelligence for Policy & Human Rights Reports in Africa **Production‑grade, agentic document intelligence pipeline built for civic accountability.** Ingest heterogeneous civic documents (scanned audits, policy briefs, human rights reports) and emit **structured, queryable, explainable, and verifiable knowledge** – with full audit trails, multilingual support, and responsible AI guardrails. --- ## The Problem: Evidence Trapped in Documents Across Africa, Human Rights Defender (HRD) organisations, investigative journalists, and policy analysts rely on thousands of PDFs – **government audits, budget reports, legal proclamations, NGO reports, and scanned archives**. This institutional knowledge is **locked in unstructured formats** that: - Cannot be searched efficiently, - Cannot be queried across documents, - Cannot provide trustworthy citations for advocacy or legal use. Traditional OCR destroys tables and multi‑column layouts. Large Language Models hallucinate when fed raw document dumps. The result: **slow, unverifiable, and expensive manual analysis** – a bottleneck for transparency and accountability. --- ## My Solution: The Document Intelligence Refinery We built a **5‑stage agentic pipeline** that acts as a forward‑deployed AI engineer for civic organisations. It turns **any PDF** (digital, scanned, multilingual, table‑heavy) into: - Structured JSON with exact page, section, and bounding‑box provenance - A navigable “smart table of contents” (PageIndex) for instant document traversal - A RAG‑ready vector store with semantic chunks that preserve tables, clauses, and evidence links - A SQL‑queryable fact database for automatic budget/expenditure comparison - An **audit‑mode** that can verify any claim against the original documents Every answer is **traceable to the exact source pixel** – making AI usable for journalism, human rights reporting, and policy analysis. --- ## Architecture --- ## Key Features ### Multi‑Strategy …
