Automate Document Processing with Azure Form Recognizer - Azure for Sure

I had a wonderful time speaking at the C# Corner’s show Azure for Sure this evening. Thank you, Stephen Simon, for being a fantastic host!

My presentation was about how to build an end-to-end automated document processing solution using Azure Form Recognizer, Logic Apps and Power BI.

My session

One of the challenges every business faces is converting documents, such as invoices, contracts, health records or printed forms, into a machine-readable format and extracting useful information. Form Recognizer, a cloud-based Azure Applied AI Service, is here to help! In this session, we’ll explore the features that Form Recognizer offers and show how you can leverage those features into a document processing system.

What you will learn in this session:

• Identify how Azure Form Recognizer’s Optical Character Recognition (OCR) capabilities can automate document processing.
• Use Form Recognizer’s document analysis and prebuilt models through the Form Recognizer Studio.
• Develop and test custom models.
• Build an automated form processing solution with Logic Apps, Azure Form Recognizer, Cosmos DB, and Power BI.
