The problem

The work gets done, then days go into the paperwork

In many Indian industries, the same figures are taken from one paper and typed into another. Rates are looked up in a book one by one, and a single mistake can send the whole document back.

The same figures, typed again

A quantity or rate is copied from paper into Excel, then into another sheet, for every job.

One mistake can delay payment

A wrong rate or total can send the document back and delay payment for work already done.

Only a few people know the rules

The rules are spread across rate books and circulars, so the work often depends on the people who know where to find them.

What AI automation changes

AI can now read a scanned document like a person. We use it to read the documents, and every figure is checked against the source before it goes into the final document.

The AI reads your papers, so nobody has to type them again.
Rates and rules come from the source book, never from the AI.
What it cannot match is marked for you to check, not guessed.

Where we started

Construction and government works

Government construction work is priced using rate books. In Delhi, the CPWD DSR is one of the main rate books used. Contractors get paid through RA Bills, and preparing one is slow and easy to get wrong.

An RA Bill can run to 10 sheets that link to each other, and every rate on it must match the DSR to the paise.

One wrong rate and the AE sends the bill back, delaying payment for finished work by months.

Many contractors hand the bill work to someone outside the firm and wait.
