File Data Extractor for Phone Numbers, Emails & More
File Data Extractor turns mixed local documents into structured records by finding common contact fields, links, dates, metadata, and business-specific patterns defined with regular expressions.
Standard fields when possible. Custom rules when necessary.
The utility combines ready-made detectors with regular-expression control for document sets that do not follow one clean structure.
