Multimodal AI
AI systems that process and reason across multiple input types (text, image, audio, video, structured data) rather than a single modality, enabling tasks like document understanding, image-grounded QA, and meeting transcription.
How it works
Multimodal models can take an image of a scanned invoice and extract structured fields, read a clinical-letter PDF including handwritten margins, transcribe and summarise a recorded meeting, or reason over a chart embedded in a board pack. For UK enterprise automation, multimodal capability is the unlock for document-heavy workflows that previously required OCR plus separate extraction logic plus separate validation. The shift is significant: a single multimodal pass replaces a five-step legacy pipeline, with materially better accuracy on real-world documents. Ayoob AI uses multimodal models extensively in document-processing, IDP, and clinical-letter workloads, with the model running inside the client's infrastructure for regulated content.
