Faster parsing option

To meet more customer's requirements, we have released a new option that enables customers to parse documents materially faster. The option is aimed at customers who need real-time responses where seconds count. This option is particularly relevant for Resume Parsing customers using our NextGen Resume Parser.

What's New?

We've introduced an advanced feature that allows faster processing of documents by bypassing certain steps that are not always necessary. To benefit from this new feature, simply adjust the document submission parameters as follows:

  • enableValidationTool: False
  • deleteAfterParse: True
  • compact: True

How Does It Work?

By setting these parameters, Affinda can bypass the need to save any data to our database, which eliminates unnecessary processing time and reduces the overall time taken to return results. However, note that this means that:

  • The document can not be viewed in out Validation Tool (e.g. for 'human in the loop' validation)
  • The document is not retained in our system so responses can not be fetched at a later date
  • Field metadata is not returned, only the 'parsed' value
