What is Azure AI Document Intelligence?
Azure AI Document Intelligence, formerly Azure Form Recognizer, is a Microsoft Azure AI service that reads documents and extracts text, key-value pairs, tables and fields. It offers prebuilt models for invoices, receipts, identity documents, tax and other forms, a layout model, and custom extraction and classification models trained on your own documents. It can also run in containers. TechTiera builds Document Intelligence solutions and connects them to SharePoint, Power Automate, Logic Apps and line-of-business systems.

How TechTiera approaches Azure Document Intelligence work
A practical Azure document pipeline
- Documents land in SharePoint, a mailbox or Blob Storage.
- A classifier identifies the document type and splits multi-document files.
- The right prebuilt or custom model extracts fields, with confidence scores.
- Low-confidence fields go to a reviewer in a Power App or Teams.
- Validated data updates the target system and the document is filed with metadata.
TechTiera builds this pattern with your existing Microsoft 365 licensing wherever possible, so automation does not require new tools.
Typical Azure Document Intelligence use cases
