Document Extraction

Document Extraction

The AI-powered document extraction feature lets you upload a document (PDF, Word, or plain text) and have DesignFoundry automatically suggest architecture objects and relationships from its content.

Supported Documents

  • Architecture decision documents (ADRs)
  • RFP responses
  • System design documents
  • Process descriptions
  • Network diagrams (image-based)

How It Works

  1. Upload a document in Import → Extract from Document
  2. The AI analyzes the text and extracts:
    • Application names → potential objects
    • Relationship descriptions → relationship candidates
    • Process names → capability candidates
  3. Review the extraction results in a confirmation screen
  4. Accept, reject, or modify individual suggestions
  5. Click Import to create the objects in your inventory

[!NOTE] Document extraction requires an active AI Assistant license.
