Intelligent formats
Some intelligent formats are based on an individual model of Machine Learning, others on a specific algorithm, but all have in common that they are searched on the document even without prior learning.
In the list of formats, intelligent formats are marked with .
These are more advanced formats that allow customised behaviour for each of them:
- Text: Company name, Currency code, Email address, Geographical location, IBAN code, License plate, Person ID, POD number, Protocol, Regular expression, Social Security Number (France), VAT number, VIN (Vehicle Identification Number)
- Date/Time: Date
- QRCode/Barcode: Barcode 1D, QRCode 2D
- Advanced formats: Signature

POD number
The Point of Delivery of the electricity supply: a 14 or 15 character alphanumeric code that identifies the meter and the electricity utility.
Protocol
A unique and incremental protocol number, generated automatically by AIDA from the global protocol counter. Since the value is not extracted from the document, these properties have no other configuration options.
Regular expression
You can set your regular expression in the Regular expression field: it will be used for both extraction and validation of user input.
Social Security Number (France)

Date
A date from any text, such as '21 September 2020' or '06/09/20'.
Format specializations: Improved form support, End date, American date format (month/day inverted).
Barcode 1D
One-dimensional barcodes, such as Code 39, Code 128, EAN-8, EAN-13, UPC-A, ISBN-10, ISBN-13, Interleaved 2 of 5 and Composite.
QRCode 2D
Two-dimensional codes: QRCode and PDF417.
Signature
Graphic/manuscript signatures on documents. This format requires the Professional plan.
note
Signature detection incurs an additional cost: for each analyzed page, 4 extra pages are charged.
