Frequently asked questions

What is death certificate processing?

Death certificate processing is the workflow organizations use to receive, capture, validate and verify data from death certificates. Our AI death certificate processing software automates this entire process to reduce manual effort, errors and processing times. It ensures that critical information – like names, dates, and reference numbers – is accurately extracted and recorded in compliance, legal, and insurance systems.

What is death certificate data extraction?

Death certificate data extraction is the process of capturing critical information from death certificates – including names, dates of death, places of death, informant details and reference numbers. Our AI platform automates death certificate data extraction, identifying and pulling these key fields from any format or layout, then structuring them into clean, verified data ready for your compliance, legal and insurance workflows.

What is death certificate extraction?

Death certificate extraction is the automatic capture of key data from death certificates using AI. Our death certificate extraction software combines reading order models, OCR, LLMs, RAG and more to convert this information with high accuracy and faster processing times.

A death certificate parser is software that automatically reads and extracts structured data from death certificates. It transforms unstructured documents into clean, machine-readable information your systems can use. Our AI death certificate parser adapts with every correction, handling any format or layout variation while delivering data in exactly the format your compliance, legal and insurance workflows require.

What is death certificate line extraction?

Death certificate line extraction captures structured and grouped data from death certificates – including related fields like multiple causes of death or informant details – and transforms them into usable formats while preserving their connections.

What is an death certificate OCR data extractor?

A death certificate optical character recognition (OCR) data extractor scans and accurately captures information from death certificates, regardless of format or language. Upload death certificate documents in PDF, JPG or PNG formats. The OCR technology first converts the documents into a text layer, ensuring all text (even from scans, photos or handwritten notes) is captured. Affinda's AI models then identify and extract key fields such as names, dates of death, places of death, causes of death, informant details and registration numbers, transforming them into structured, usable data.This automation eliminates manual data entry, reduces errors and saves time. Once the death certificate data is captured and structured, our AI death certificate processing pipeline can apply machine validation and post-processing to enable seamless integration with compliance, legal and insurance systems.Organizations in government, legal, insurance and compliance sectors rely on Affinda's AI for their verification, claims processing and regulatory workflows, streamlining operations and improving overall accuracy.
