Cradl AI
#490 most-usedExtract structured data from any document with AI
Cradl AI is a document processing platform that runs production-grade AI agents to extract and validate structured data from invoices, contracts, forms, and any other document type. Connect it to Actionist and your agents can submit documents for processing, monitor extraction runs, retrieve validated data, and route low-confidence results to a human-in-the-loop review queue — all without manual data entry.
Eliminates manual work. Agents eliminate the manual cycle of reading PDFs, transcribing fields into internal systems, and chasing reviewers for low-confidence extractions — replacing it with automated submission, extraction, and downstream data writing.
What your Cradl AI agent runs on autopilot
A week of scheduled jobs your Actionist agent will execute on your behalf.
Cradl AI × every other app you use
End-to-end automations that span multiple apps — each one a real business outcome.
Invoice arrives, ERP records created without human touch
When a PDF invoice arrives in the shared inbox, the Finance Agent submits it to Cradl AI for extraction, waits for the structured result — supplier, amount, line items, due date — and writes a new payable record directly into the ERP. Invoices that need human review because of low-confidence fields are routed to a validation task in Cradl AI and the reviewer is notified via Slack. The entire journey from inbox to ERP takes the team zero keystrokes.
Time saved for your team — every week, on autopilot

What your team gets back — two angles: what you stop doing manually, and what that's worth.
What you do manually today
What your agent runs for you
- Sales60 min / weekManual PO and contract data entry
Reps receive purchase order and contract PDFs and manually copy PO numbers, line items, and key terms into the CRM — taking 10–15 minutes per document and introducing transcription errors that cause downstream billing issues.
Sales Agent0 minAgent extracts and writes structured deal dataThe Sales Agent submits each PO or contract PDF to Cradl AI and writes the extracted structured data directly to the CRM deal record within about a minute of receiving the document — zero keystrokes from the rep.
- Marketing45 min / weekManual brief and report transcription
Campaign managers read PDF media briefs and agency performance reports and re-enter key figures into the campaign management system — a slow, error-prone step that delays campaign kick-off and post-campaign analysis.
Marketing Agent0 minAgent extracts campaign data from PDFs on arrivalThe Marketing Agent submits each media brief and agency report to Cradl AI for extraction and writes the structured fields — budget, targets, performance metrics — to the campaign system before the team's first briefing meeting.
- Customer Support90 min / weekManual warranty claim and complaint data entry
Support staff read scanned warranty forms and complaint letters and manually create structured tickets by re-typing customer details, product information, and defect descriptions — adding minutes to every claim and creating a backlog on Mondays.
Customer Support Agent0 minAgent processes claim forms and creates structured ticketsThe Support Agent submits each scanned form to Cradl AI, receives the structured fields, and creates the support ticket automatically — the support team reviews pre-populated tickets instead of blank forms.
- Human Resources50 min / weekManual onboarding form data entry
HR coordinators manually read new-hire paperwork and type names, addresses, tax codes, and bank details into the HRIS — taking 20–30 minutes per new hire and delaying payroll setup for starters who join in batches.
Human Resources Agent0 minAgent pre-populates HRIS from paperwork before day oneThe HR Agent submits each new-hire document to Cradl AI, extracts the structured employee fields, and pre-populates the HRIS record before the new starter's first day — no manual data entry from the HR team.
- Finance120 min / weekManual invoice and expense data entry
AP staff open each invoice PDF, read line items, and manually enter supplier names, amounts, and due dates into the accounting system — 5–10 minutes per invoice adds up to hours per week for high-volume teams.
Finance Agent0 minAgent extracts invoice data and creates ERP recordsThe Finance Agent submits each invoice PDF to Cradl AI for extraction and writes the structured payable record to the ERP automatically — the AP team reviews clean structured records, not raw PDFs.
- Operations60 min / weekManual pipeline configuration audits
The platform team manually logs into Cradl AI to verify that all agents have correct webhook configurations — a slow, undocumented check that is often skipped until a silent extraction failure exposes an orphaned hook.
Operations Agent0 minAgent audits pipeline configuration automatically each weekThe Operations Agent retrieves the full Cradl AI resource inventory every Monday, reconciles it against the approved configuration, and flags any anomaly in the incident management system before the week's batch runs begin.
- Legal80 min / weekManual contract term transcription
Lawyers and paralegals read signed contracts page by page and manually enter party names, dates, renewal provisions, and key obligations into the contract management system — a 20–40 minute task per contract that creates a backlog at busy signing periods.
Legal Agent0 minAgent extracts contract terms and sets renewal remindersThe Legal Agent submits each signed contract to Cradl AI for extraction of all key terms and writes them to the contract register, with renewal reminders set automatically — no manual reading or data entry per contract.

How to plug Cradl AI into Actionist
Pick the connection method that suits your environment.
Connect Actionist to Cradl AI using your account's OAuth2 credentials. Generate a Client ID and Client Secret in the Cradl AI API settings, enter them in Actionist, and the agent authenticates automatically via the OAuth2 client-credentials flow.
Go to rc.app.cradl.ai, navigate to Account Settings, then API. Locate the Client ID and Client Secret under API credentials.
In Actionist's Apps tab, find Cradl AI and click Connect. Paste your Client ID and Client Secret into the fields provided.
Actionist calls the Cradl AI /organizations/me endpoint to verify the credentials. A successful test means your agent is ready to submit documents and receive extraction results.
