What changes when it is pharmaceuticals & life sciences

Orqent Labs digitises document archives with confidence reporting on every field, so you know which pages need a human and which do not.

In pharmaceuticals & life sciences, GxP validation means every system change needs documented evidence before it reaches production. That single fact reshapes how ocr & handwriting recognition has to be built here, the guardrails, the approval points and the evidence trail are design inputs rather than things bolted on before go-live.

The workload we are most often asked to take on first is regulatory dossier assembly, usually integrated against SAP. Every engagement opens with a measurement: the cycle time, the cost per transaction, or the error rate we are being asked to move.

Multi-model by default, so a provider outage is a routing decision rather than an incident. You own the code, the models where they are open-weight, and the documentation to run it without us.

Questions from this sector

Can an AI system be GxP validated?

Yes, with a documented validation approach, IQ/OQ/PQ, defined intended use, change control and evidence of consistent performance. We build the validation pack alongside the system, not afterwards.

How do you handle 21 CFR Part 11?

Audit trails, electronic signatures, access control and record integrity designed in from the start, because retrofitting them is effectively a rebuild.

Does it handle Indian languages?

Yes, Devanagari, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, Malayalam, Bengali, Gujarati, Punjabi and Odia among others. Accuracy varies by script and scan quality, and we measure it on your material rather than quoting a brochure figure.

How accurate is handwriting recognition?

Highly variable. Neat, consistent handwriting reads well; mixed or cursive is much harder. We run a sample first and tell you honestly whether it is viable.

Can you process our physical archive?

Yes, working with scanning partners for the physical capture and handling the digitisation and structuring end.
