End-to-End Doc Processing

Multi-modal LLM OCR extracts, validates, and syncs multi-page contracts and PDFs into financial ERPs in seconds.

Human Ledger Entry Errors

Mathematical checksums, automated 3-way matching, and fraud screening eliminate costly manual balance mistakes.

Engineering Pipeline

5-Stage Durable Automation Architecture

How we transform fragile manual procedures into resilient, audited, and self-healing enterprise software pipelines.

Stage 01

Process Mining & Data Contract Scoping

We analyze human workflows across email, spreadsheets, ERPs, and CRMs. We define JSON schema contracts, identify failure points, and eliminate procedural redundancies.

Process Mining JSON Schemas Failure Mode Analysis
Stage 02

Temporal.io State Machine Modeling

Workflows are coded as deterministic Temporal state machines. If external banking or cloud APIs time out, Temporal automatically sleeps and retries with exponential backoff without dropping state.

Temporal.io Durable Execution Compensating Sagas
Stage 03

Multi-Modal Document Extraction (AI-OCR)

Unstructured PDFs, handwritten invoices, and messy contracts are processed with Claude 3.5 Sonnet and GPT-4o vision models, extracting strongly typed Pydantic data with 99.8% precision.

Claude 3.5 Vision Pydantic Schemas Zero Hallucination Validation
Stage 04

Bidirectional ERP, CRM & Treasury Connectors

Direct, transactional API integrations with Salesforce, SAP, NetSuite, Workday, and Stripe Treasury. Rate-limited queues buffer high-volume events to avoid exceeding vendor rate caps.

Salesforce API SAP NetSuite Stripe Treasury Rate-Limit Leaky Bucket
Stage 05

Human-in-the-Loop Escalation & Telemetry

When an anomaly or threshold violation occurs (e.g. invoice over $100k or unverified vendor address), the workflow halts and sends an interactive Slack/Teams button to a manager. Once approved, the workflow resumes instantly.

Comparing Automation Methodologies

Why enterprise operations teams choose Acadify durable execution over fragile no-code toys or legacy UI bots.

Automation Dimension No-Code Tools (Zapier / Make) Legacy Desktop RPA (UiPath) Acadify Durable Code Standard
State Durability & Outages Fails immediately when an API times out; records are silently dropped. Desktop bot crashes if an unexpected OS popup or screen resolution changes. Temporal.io Zero-Loss Durability: Workflows sleep and resume across crashes with exact state history.
Unstructured Document Parsing Cannot parse complex multi-line PDF tables or handwritten signatures. Rigid coordinates (OCR bounding boxes) that break whenever vendor layouts change. Multi-Modal Vision LLMs: Claude 3.5 Sonnet extracts strongly typed data without fixed coordinate templates.
Enterprise Rate Limiting & Sagas Overwhelms ERP rate limits; no compensating transactions on failures. Sequential execution that takes hours to complete batch files. Leaky-Bucket Rate Limiting & Sagas: Automated rollback of partial ledger writes when errors occur.
Security & On-Premises VPC Data passes through third-party SaaS cloud servers without VPC isolation. Requires dedicated Windows VMs with open desktop sessions. Private VPC Execution: Self-hosted Temporal clusters inside your AWS/GCP accounts with SOC 2 compliance.
Human-in-the-Loop Approval Limited email notifications with basic text replies. Requires human operator to manually take over the remote desktop. Interactive Slack/Teams BlockKit: Approvals with full visual diffs and 1-click authorization buttons.
Auditability & Observability 7-day execution logs that purge automatically. Scattered local log files on Windows VMs. Permanent OpenTelemetry Tracing: Replay any workflow execution step-by-step from 3 years ago.

Frequently Asked Engineering Questions

Real answers on durable execution, legacy app automation, error recovery, and data security.

Temporal records every event, state transition, and activity execution in an append-only event history database (PostgreSQL/Cassandra). If a server crashes, container reboots, or network disconnects midway through step 4 of an invoicing workflow, a new worker automatically picks up the execution, replays the recorded history up to step 3, and continues step 4 exactly where it left off with zero data duplication.

We never allow workflows to make blind guesses. If an extraction confidence score falls below 95% or line-item amounts fail mathematical cross-checks, the workflow enters a Human-in-the-Loop state. An interactive Slack or Teams notification is sent to an operations manager with the PDF attached and discrepancies highlighted. The workflow waits asynchronously until a human clicks "Approve" or modifies the values, after which execution resumes automatically.

Yes. We build resilient headless browser automation agents using Playwright. Unlike brittle desktop coordinate-clicking RPA tools, our agents interact with underlying DOM structures, handle multi-factor authentication (MFA) token injection, and automatically manage session re-authentication. For non-web legacy terminal systems, we engineer headless CLI wrappers over SSH and telnet streams.

All automation workers run inside your own private AWS or GCP Virtual Private Cloud (VPC). Inbound payloads containing PII or banking credentials are cryptographically scrubbed or tokenized via HashiCorp Vault. Data is encrypted with AWS KMS at rest and via TLS 1.3 in transit, fully complying with SOC 2 Type II, HIPAA, and GDPR standards.

No-code tools are built for simple non-critical triggers (e.g. posting a form submission to Slack). They lack durable execution, cannot handle complex financial reconciliation sagas, choke on rate limits, and send your proprietary customer records through uncertified third-party servers. Custom code built on Temporal.io provides version-controlled code, automated CI/CD testing, infinite scalability, and zero monthly per-task pricing penalties.
