How to automate document processing into Microsoft SQL Server
Affinda processes your documents in the background and sends data straight into Microsoft SQL Server.Automatically send your documents to Affinda
Upload, email or integrate your documents as soon as you receive them.AI agents extract and validate key data fields
Affinda's AI agents extract and transform your data with superior accuracy, thanks to advanced contextual understanding and machine validation.See your data appear in Microsoft SQL Server
Affinda sends your data straight into Microsoft SQL Server, automatically populating all the extracted data fields.Extract any information from any document, fast
Create models in seconds
Upload a claims document and the Affinda Platform will predict the fields you need – like claimant details, policy number, incident date, totals and line items – so you can automate claims document processing in just a few clicks.
Validate and transform data
The platform checks extracted claims data against your business rules and transforms it into a format your claims management system expects. That way, it’s ready for workflows like coverage checks, reserving, routing and settlement.
Apply your business logic
Use natural language to write validation rules that match your claims workflows, for example: flag missing fields; check policy numbers match correct formats; validate that document dates are within ranges; check financial consistency, such as line items summing correctly to totals.Pathway 1: Use the Agent
Create integrations fast, even if you’re not a developer. Choose from 2800+ business systems and describe how you want your claims document processing workflow to connect, using natural language. The Agent will generate the code to make it happen.Pathway 2: Write your own code
Easily connect Affinda Platform to your claims stack using our client libraries and APIs. Automatically generate type-safe Pydantic models or TypeScript interfaces tailored to your claims documents, so extracted fields map cleanly into your workflows.

Once validated, the data is automatically loaded into your SQL Server tables in the format you need, whether that's populating invoices, purchase orders, resumes or contracts for reporting, analytics or application use.
You can also configure custom validation rules, field mappings and data transformations to match your database schema and business requirements.
What types of documents can Affinda process and send to Microsoft SQL Server?
