AI document checker

AI document checks that follow your instructions.

Tell PORTALD what you want checked in plain English. It reads the upload and gives your team a clear first answer before anyone opens the file.

Set the check once

“Tell PORTALD what you want to check, then leave the first pass to us.”

It flags what needs a closer look. Your team makes the final decision.

Explore the AI document checker

This fictional PORTALD product demonstration creates a service certificate checklist item and asks PORTALD to check that the job reference and completion date are present. The customer uploads an example PDF, PORTALD returns a first-pass note, and the business sees the result in its activity feed.
