Case Study: Carbon Direct Achieves 97% Touchless Utility Bill Processing with Docsumo

Carbon Direct automates utility bill processing 97% with Docsumo

Carbon Direct, a New York-based carbon management company, faced a significant challenge in manually processing over 200 utility bills from various suppliers for its clients. This manual data capture and refinement process was time-consuming, taking approximately 75 minutes per account, which hindered the company's ability to help clients achieve their environmental goals efficiently. To overcome this, they turned to Docsumo for an automated document processing solution.

By implementing Docsumo's Document AI, Carbon Direct automated 97% of its utility bill data capture workflow. The solution enabled them to parse hundreds of bills in under a minute with high accuracy. This resulted in a 97% straight-through processing rate, saving over 150 man-hours per month and significantly reducing processing costs. The time savings allowed Carbon Direct's team to reallocate efforts toward strategic carbon management initiatives, helping their clients reach ESG goals twice as fast.
