DocNet AI Agents Infographic
DocBits Multi-Agent System for Autonomous Document Processing

What is DocNet?

DocNet is the AI-powered automation platform within the DocBits ecosystem. It enables users to control their document processing through natural language and automate it with intelligent agents — no technical expertise required.

Core Benefits

1. Natural Language Document Control

Users ask questions in everyday language and get instant answers:

  • "How many invoices are waiting for approval?"

  • "What is the status of invoice 1001?"

  • "Show me all open purchase orders."

  • "Upload my documents."

Benefit: No navigating through complex menus. A single chat window replaces dozens of clicks.

2. AI Agents Automate Routine Tasks

DocNet provides pre-configured system agents that are ready to use immediately:

3. Create Custom Agents

Organizations can configure their own agents:

  • Define triggers: Document upload, status change, schedule, chat command, or manual

  • Assign capabilities: Extraction, classification, validation, master data lookup, PO matching, translation, summarization

  • Use templates: Quick start with proven agent templates

Benefit: Every organization tailors automation to its own processes.

4. Multi-Channel Access

DocNet is accessible everywhere:

  • Web Chat directly in DocBits

  • Slack integration

  • Microsoft Teams integration

  • Discord integration

  • Email processing

Benefit: Employees use their familiar communication tools.

5. Multi-Agent Orchestrator

The Multi-Agent Orchestrator coordinates multiple agents for complex tasks:

  1. Incoming request (e.g., email with invoice attachment)

  2. Automatic planning: Which agents are needed?

  3. Execution in the correct order

  4. Result summary and notification

Benefit: Complex workflows that previously required manual coordination run fully automatically.

6. MCP Integration for External AI Tools

DocNet supports the Model Context Protocol (MCP), allowing external AI assistants (such as Claude Desktop or other tools) to work directly with DocBits:

  • Upload and process documents

  • Query status and wait for completion

  • Extract and update fields

  • Validate and export documents (e.g., to Infor ERP / SAP)

Benefit: AI assistants become full DocBits users — ideal for power users and developers.

Typical Use Cases

Invoice Processing

  1. Invoice received via email

  2. Document classification identifies: Invoice

  3. Extraction reads fields (invoice number, amount, supplier)

  4. Validation checks completeness

  5. PO matching assigns the invoice to the purchase order

  6. On success: automatic export to Infor ERP / SAP

Supplier Inquiries via Chat

  • Employee asks: "Which invoices from supplier XY are open?"

  • DocNet searches the database and delivers a structured answer

  • Employee can trigger actions directly: "Approve invoice 1001."

Automatic Quality Control

  • Agent checks every uploaded invoice for required fields

  • On missing data: automatic notification to the responsible employee

  • Dashboard shows overview of all open validation errors
