Expands Box’s Intelligent Content Management
Capabilities with AI-powered Document Processing and Metadata
Extraction
Box, Inc. (NYSE: BOX), the leading Intelligent Content Cloud,
today announced its acquisition of the AI-powered, intelligent
document processing (IDP) technology of Alphamoon. This strategic
move, along with Box’s recent acquisition of Crooze, a leading
provider of no-code enterprise content management applications,
significantly expands the Box Intelligent Content Management (ICM)
platform. The acquisition further enhances the power of Box AI to
automate document-related tasks and extract valuable metadata from
critical business content across a variety of industries.
"We are entering a new era of Intelligent Content Management and
this acquisition represents a pivotal moment in our mission to
revolutionize how enterprises derive value from their content,"
said Aaron Levie, Co-Founder and CEO of Box. "By integrating
Alphamoon’s cutting-edge AI technology with Box AI, and bringing
the talented Alphamoon team to Box, we're poised to address the
longstanding challenges of metadata creation at scale and empower
our customers with unprecedented new automation capabilities."
Driving Innovation in Intelligent Document Processing
(IDP)
Alphamoon’s technology combines leading large language models
(LLMs) with proprietary OCR and document processing technology to
intelligently structure documents at scale. Once fully integrated
with Box, Alphamoon’s technology will further expand the
capabilities of the Box AI platform to revolutionize IDP by
leveraging:
- Advanced, proprietary OCR technology to intelligently
understand complex document structures;
- Leading third-party AI models (such as GPT-4 and Gemini) to
drive innovation in metadata extraction to allow Box customers to
structure their unstructured content in a simple and easy-to-use
way;
- Box’s enterprise-grade security and policies and applying it to
AI implementation, with no additional training, to ensure all
customer data remains safe and secure.
“IDP remains a critical origination point for increasingly
complex document workflow using intelligent capture paired with
automation,” said Amy Machado, Senior Research Manager, Enterprise
Management & Workplace Strategies, IDC. “To enable automation,
organizations need a high level of accuracy, usability, and
flexibility to support their diversity of documents and custom
business requirements. With the Alphamoon acquisition, Box now has
a complete end-to-end solution, unlike the pure-play IDP
vendors.”
Alphamoon’s technology for document extraction and metadata will
be seamlessly integrated into Box and these enhancements will
enable customers to tackle a number of use cases and projects with
wide-ranging benefits, such as:
- Automating metadata extraction from business documents allowing
users to leverage information stored within invoices, purchase
orders, financial statements, contracts, leases, and more;
- Streamlining workflows based on extracted metadata, such as
using metadata to understand if a legal contract is missing
information, and alerting a legal assistant to complete it;
- Integrating extracted information with external applications
like Salesforce. Today, the Box for Salesforce integration is one
of the most widely used at Box and by leveraging enhanced metadata
extraction in Box, enterprises can optimize core workflows, like
loan processing;
- Enhancing industry-specific processes, such as analyzing
clinical studies in life sciences or financial documents in the
financial services sector.
Pricing and Availability
Box expects to announce availability and pricing for new
intelligent document processing capabilities at a later date. For
