Use Cases
Purple8 DocIntel is domain-aware — not a generic RAG chunker. Each industry use case has a matching extraction profile with its own ontology, chunking strategy, and model tier.
| Use case | Profile | Model | Chunking | Docs |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| AEC & BIM | aec | FLAGSHIP | table_aware | Details → |
| Legal & Contracts | contract | FLAGSHIP | clause | Details → |
| Finance & ERP | financial | DEFAULT | table_aware | Details → |
| Scientific Research | scientific | DEFAULT | section | Details → |

AEC & BIM
Parse IFC models, CAD drawings, and AEC specification documents to extract building elements, materials, systems, classifications, and regulatory codes.
Entities: IfcElement · IfcSpace · IfcMaterial · IfcSystem · RegulatoryCode · IfcClassification
Typical workflow: IFC upload → DocIntel → knowledge graph → clash detection, compliance checking, cost estimation.
Legal & Contracts
Parse contracts, NDAs, service agreements, and procurement documents to extract parties, clauses, obligations, rights, monetary values, and key dates.
Entities: Party · Clause · Obligation · Right · MonetaryValue · Date
TIP
The contract profile uses FLAGSHIP model + ≥ 0.75 confidence threshold to minimise hallucinated party names.
Finance & ERP
Parse invoices, purchase orders, financial statements, and SAP IDocs to extract companies, transactions, line items, amounts, and account codes.
Entities: Company · Transaction · GLAccount · Amount · InvoiceLineItem · Date
SAP IDoc support: Parses INVOIC02 / ORDERS05 segment structure automatically.
Scientific Research
Parse academic papers, technical reports, and research articles to extract authors, institutions, datasets, methods, findings, and benchmark results.
Entities: Author · Institution · Dataset · MLModel · Finding · Method · Metric
Enterprise Knowledge
The catch-all profile for SharePoint libraries, Confluence spaces, and mixed-domain document repositories. Maximises recall across diverse document types.
Entities: Person · Organisation · Location · Product · Event · Policy · Concept · Date · Value · Reference · Document
CAD & Manufacturing
Parse DXF, STEP, STL, OBJ, and G-code files using the aec or general profile:
- Assembly structure and component hierarchy
- Part names, tolerances, and material references
- G-code metadata: tool paths, layer count, estimated print time
Combine with product specifications and supplier documents to build a product knowledge graph.
