After discussing with multiple people about our draft 1 we tweaked the idea a bit and are only concentrating on Document Organizer & Management for now.
2. 2
Washing Machine not
working?
Pulled over by Traffic
Cop?
Taking a loved one to
Hospital?
Search invoice to check if it is in
warranty or not
Look for OEM customer support
Wonder if it is the same problem
that happened earlier
Frantically search for DL, RC,
Insurance, PUC
Realize that you forgot to renew
the PUC certificate
Search for car insurance in email
as you don’t have printed copy
Search for health insurance
policy number
Figure out what is covered & not
covered
Search for previous health
records & prescriptions
Not being able to locate a doc / info can be unnecessarily stressful
3. 3
Categorize & Store Search & Retrieve Extract info, Update &
Discard
Lot of manual effort required in
properly categorizing & storing
the documents – Online as well
as Offline
Searching and retrieving
documents is a hassle as they are
not segregated & tagged properly
Need to remember things like
renewal dates, payment due
dates to keep the doc updated
Documents not relevant
anymore still continue to clutter
the storage space
‘Doc Management’ can also be equally stressful
4. 4
Remove the stress, let documents do the work for you!
Quick access Digital Vault for
personal docs, bank details,
appliance docs, education docs,
insurance docs, rent agreements
etc., segregated & tagged
properly
Central information source for
critical as well as day-to-day
information such as OEM’s
customer support number, nearest
service centre, policy numbers,
personal id numbers, service
records etc.
Proactive alerts / reminders for actions
required regarding the documents such
as renewal dates, payment due dates,
documents that need to be discarded
etc.
Automatic segregation
of Docs
Automatic extraction
of important info
Proactive system
keeping itself updated
Just upload/email/share the document & rest will happen Automatically
5. 5
SORTED is a combination of
Mobile, Web & Cloud
applications making Document

Why now?
Cloud Storages
becoming cluttered
Computer vision & AI in
general has become a
lot more mature
Users just hacking their
way around for doc
management
Largely used as a dump for all kinds
of files, especially photos & videos.
Naming & arranging of files depends
on the user, leaving it all as a clutter.
Documents scattered across
different cloud platforms & emails.
Important info getting lost in clutter
Users manage docs through
different apps for scanning, cloud
storage, storing offline, setting
reminders and searching.
No dedicated tools to manage
docs properly while there are very
good tools available for photos &
videos.
Computer visions, AI & OCR
technologies have become a lot
more matured as well as
accessible as both paid or open
source solutions

Hypothesis:
Productivity apps today are designed for people who are already Organized & Disciplined
– as they need a lot of effort from user for them to work in the first place. These apps will
be really value adding if they can take care of things automatically.
Projected Market Size:
Market for an automated document management app will be much larger than the market
for apps mentioned above.
