The Railway Receipt Intelligence System (RRIS) is an innovative AI-powered document processing platform specifically designed to automate the extraction, analysis, and management of Indian railway freight receipts. This comprehensive solution transforms complex, multi-page railway documents into structured, actionable data through advanced artificial intelligence and machine learning technologies.

Problem Statement

Indian railway freight operations generate millions of receipts annually, containing critical business information across multiple pages and complex formats. Traditional manual processing of these documents faces significant challenges:

• Time-Consuming: Manual data entry takes 15-30 minutes per document

• Error-Prone: Human errors in data transcription and calculation

• Multi-Page Complexity: Critical wagon details span across 3-4 pages

• Format Variability: Inconsistent document layouts and scanning quality

• Compliance Risks: GST and railway rule compliance verification difficulties

RRIS addresses these challenges through a sophisticated hybrid AI architecture that combines:
