Read and retrieve information from PDF contract batches with AI

Question

Good morning, community! I have the following question. I'm paying for the pro version of Adobe Acrobat to be able to read contracts in PDF format. These contracts are for site rentals and are PDFs that were scanned with a cell phone, so they're images, not text. I've already tested Adobe's built-in AI to extract relevant information, and it does so correctly. The point is, I need to be able to replicate the same thing for a larger batch of contracts. Not all of them have the same format, but I still need to obtain the same information for all of them. My question is whether this can be done, or if there's a way to do it. I'll be looking forward to it!

Thank you for providing us with more details.
Currently, there is no built-in solution to process these many files all at once. However, I am checking internally to see if this can be submitted as a feature request and whether there is a workaround we can suggest.

Thank you for your support, feedback and patience.

Hi @marcos_3004,

Thanks for the thoughtful question. This is a really innovative use of AI, and it’s great to see how you’re thinking about applying it to streamline contract handling.

While community experts may jump in to share their approaches and tools that work for them, we’ll also check internally with the product team to confirm whether something like this is currently possible using built-in Acrobat features or APIs.

In the meantime, we’d encourage you to submit this idea as a feature request so it’s visible to the engineering team for future consideration: Adobe Acrobat UserVoice

Also, I would like to know the following details:

How many files are we talking about?
What is the average PDF file size?
Are those agreements in one language or different? If different, how many languages?

Appreciate you raising this!

Best regards,
