Box, a leader in Intelligent Content Management (ICM), announced the launch of Box Extract, a new AI-powered data extraction solution designed to automatically unlock and structure critical business information hidden within unstructured enterprise content. Built to operate at scale and seamlessly integrate with Box’s secure content platform, Box Extract enables organizations to automate workflows, accelerate decision-making, and derive deeper insights from the content that fuels their business.
Enterprises often struggle to convert contracts, invoices, onboarding documents, claims forms, and other unstructured assets into usable intelligence. Traditional OCR and legacy intelligent document processing tools fall short due to limited context understanding and high maintenance overhead, leaving valuable information “dark” and inaccessible. Box Extract addresses these challenges by combining cutting-edge AI models with advanced extraction capabilities, empowering teams to extract high-quality metadata directly within Box.

Box Extract harnesses powerful generative AI and specialized agents, including Google’s Gemini, Anthropic’s Claude, and OpenAI’s GPT family, integrated with advanced OCR and retrieval-augmented generation techniques to deliver accurate, contextualized data at enterprise scale. Users can choose between the Standard Extract Agent for simple documents and the Enhanced Extract Agent for complex files that demand deep metadata extraction.

-
