Smart Extract is Revver's AI-powered feature that automatically pulls and saves metadata you care about from your documents. You will be able to easily automate filing, improve searches, drive reports, and power workflows, all triggered by metadata that Smart Extract finds. All without having to manually work on the file at all.
Access & Permissions Required
In order to view profile information and information collected by Smart Extract, your user will require the 'Profiles' feature to be enabled.
In order to enable Smart Extract on locations and files, your user will require the 'Profile Management' feature to be enabled.
To use automation features with the metadata that Smart Extract collects, your user will require the 'Workflow Management' feature enabled.

Using Smart Extract
Step 1 - Log in to Revver
As covered in the Access & Permissions Required section of this article, your user will require both the Profiles and the Profile Management feature. Profiles allow you to see the Profiles panel on a document or location within Revver, which is where metadata collected by Smart Extract is stored, and Profile Management will allow you to enable Smart Extract on locations containing the documents you want to use it on.
Step 2 - Enable Smart Extract
Enabling Smart Extract is done on a per-location basis, giving you control over which documents are processed for metadata. Smart Extract can be enabled on all location types, including cabinets.
Start by locating a cabinet, folder, or drawer you want to enable Smart Extract on, selecting it, then clicking on the Profiles tab on the right.
Click on the 'Turn on Smart Extract' button to enable Smart Extract on that location.
Step 3 - Customize the Metadata
Clicking on that button will bring up a screen where you can configure what metadata you want Smart Extract to look for. The available options are determined by which profiles (groups) and/or profile items (fields) you have set up within your Revver account.
Select a profile group, or whichever profile fields you want Smart Extract to look out for and it will automatically add them to its watch list.
Once satisfied, clicking on the 'Customize' button will finalize your selection and enable Smart Extraction for that location.
Step 4 - Upload Files
As you upload files into Smart Extract enabled locations, it will automatically process them. The results will appear in the Profile tab.
Power automations with the metadata
After Smart Extract runs on your file and populates metadata for you, Revver has powerful automation features that can then use that metadata to properly file/route documents, kick off other processes, and initiate manual reviews as needed. With your test location selected, you can navigate to the Automations tab. From there, you can initiate several different actions based on the new trigger, “Smart Extract completes,” or the updated trigger, “A profile item value is added or changed on a file in this location.”
For example, you can create a Workflow that will use a specific metadata value to create folders and move items into that folder. You can then set an automation to “Start a Workflow” when “Smart Extract completes” for this location. Now, when you upload documents, Smart Extract will automatically run and find metadata. Then the Workflow will start, and it will use the metadata that Smart Extract finds to create folders and move items.
Disabling Smart Extract
To disable Smart Extract on a location you have enabled it on, click on the location to select it, then click on the 'Profile' tab on the right.
Click on the 'Edit Smart Extract' button within the Profile panel.
Then click on 'Turn off Smart Extract' to disable it for that location.
