DocClaw system unifies document processing tasks with agentic framework

Researchers have introduced DocClaw, a novel agentic system designed to unify various intelligent document processing (IDP) tasks. This system treats diverse IDP functions, such as optical character recognition (OCR) and document question answering (DocQA), as an interactive process between an agent and a document. DocClaw utilizes a structured document state to manage knowledge and context, enabling iterative refinement of information and tool invocation. Experiments across multiple benchmarks show DocClaw's effectiveness in handling varied tasks within a single framework, achieving competitive results against specialized methods and general-purpose Vision-Language Models.
