New Belgium Brewing streamlines business operations with AI-powered automation

New Belgium Brewing implemented KnowledgeLake’s Hyperautomation platform, built with Azure AI, to overhaul its document management. The brewery faced challenges from rapid growth, manual processes, and outdated paper workflows. By leveraging Synthetic Labor™, which combines advanced Large Language Models (LLMs), Machine Learning, NLP, and Computer Vision, the platform transformed invoice processing, document classification, and validation. Within two weeks, invoice processing time was cut by more than 70%, enabling automatic processing of 100% of invoices. The automation reduced manual data entry, decreased errors, and enhanced productivity by allowing employees to focus on higher-value tasks. KnowledgeLake’s technology improved document searchability, benefitting audit processes and remote work. The brewery continues expanding the use of AI-driven automation to other departments, minimizing errors and supporting strategic focus areas. KnowledgeLake’s integrated platform supports intelligent document processing, workflow automation, and content management tailored to complex business needs. Human feedback is incorporated for continuous learning and improvement of the AI systems. The overall result was a significant increase in operational efficiency, faster approvals, improved accuracy, and reduced costs across business operations.
