Built an AI-powered Document Intelligence Review Workbench for a manufacturing client in the US. The problem was simple: Teams were dealing with large volumes of PDFs, scanned documents, internal policies, supplier docs, external links, and operational records. Manual search was slow, and every answer needed to be backed by source references. So I built an end-to-end RAG solution on Azure. Architecture: • Azure Blob Storage for document storage • Azure AI Document Intelligence for OCR • Azure AI Search for vector + semantic retrieval • Azure Functions for the API layer • Azure AI Foundry for model orchestration • GPT-5.5 and Claude model selection • React frontend for upload, review, citations, and follow-up chat Flow: Upload document → OCR/text extraction → retrieve relevant knowledge → generate structured summary → show findings with citations → ask follow-up questions. I also added: • scanned PDF support • citation links • model switching • clean review dashboard • non-relevant document detection • follow-up chat grounded in uploaded documents and retrieved sources This was a fun full-stack AI build covering RAG ingestion, Azure architecture, backend APIs, LLM integration, OCR, and frontend UX. The key point: AI is useful only when the answer can be traced back to the source.
