Form-Field Extraction
Read the answers straight out of fillable PDFs — exact field names and values, not OCR guesses.
What it is
Form-field extraction pulls the answers that are already stored inside a fillable PDF as structured form fields — the field name and the exact value someone typed. It is built for paperwork that arrives as interactive PDFs: government forms, HR onboarding, insurance claims, and banking applications.
Why it's painful today
The data is already structured inside the file, but most tools flatten the page to pixels and OCR it back — throwing that structure away and re-introducing OCR mistakes. So teams re-key forms by hand even though the answers were sitting right there.
What Xberg does
Xberg reads the AcroForm and XFA fields directly from the document. The result is exact, not inferred — each field name maps to the value the user entered, with no OCR step and no confidence score to second-guess.
- Exact field-name to value pairs, read from the document's own structure.
- Reads both AcroForm and XFA form definitions.
- Checkboxes, radio buttons, and dropdowns come back as their selected values.
- No OCR on data that is already present, so there is nothing to mis-read.
