Ellement automates pension contribution report data extraction with Nanonets, reducing processing time by 90%

The problem

Ellement's team manually gathered data points from employer Pension Contribution Reports and entered them into Excel spreadsheets, making data collection the most time-intensive step in their workflow and causing delayed speed-to-value for customers.

First attempt

Ellement tried Microsoft Power Automate but it offered limited accuracy even for structured data.
