January update
We are excited to announce a major upgrade to the intelligence and reliability of Cradl AI. This update introduces a new state-of-the-art model and a suite of validation tools designed to make your document workflows more accurate and automated than ever before.
New LLLM: Qwen 3.vl
We have officially integrated the Qwen 3.vl LLM into our platform. In our extensive testing, Qwen 3.vl has consistently outperformed Claude Sonnet 4.5 in data extraction accuracy and visual understanding. Because of this superior performance, Qwen 3.vl is now the default LLM for all new agents, ensuring you get the highest quality results from day one.
New Formatter: "Match and Map"
Data consistency is critical for downstream automation. Our new "Match and Map" validator allows you to ensure extracted values align perfectly with your existing data. You can now match extracted text against a set of predetermined values, automatically mapping them to the correct format for your ERP, CRM, or database.
New Validators
To further reduce manual review, we’ve added a comprehensive list of new specialized validators. These tools automatically verify the format of extracted data, flagging errors before they reach your systems. The new validators include:
Financial & Tax: IBAN, BIC/SWIFT, VAT ID, Tax ID.
Identity & Contact: Passport Number, Phone Number, Email.
Logistics & Transport: Freight Container ID, License Plate.
Web: URL
Stability and Performance
Alongside these features, we have implemented several general stability improvements and addressed minor bugs to ensure a smoother, faster experience across the entire Cradl AI dashboard.

December update
New: Intelligent Rotation
All documents are now automatically rotated to the correct orientation before processing. This means you no longer need to manually rotate your files, saving you time and effort.
Updated: Role System
We have revamped our role system to provide more granular control over your workspace. You can now invite members to your workspace with the following roles:
Admin: Full access to the workspace, including billing and workspace settings.
Developer: Can edit workflows, integrations, and AI models.
Reviewer: Can only review runs that have been flagged for review.
This new role system allows you to collaborate more effectively and securely with your team.
New: Smart OCR in Review
Reviewing documents is now faster and more accurate with our new Smart OCR feature. When reviewing a file, you can simply click on a word in the document to instantly copy it to the corresponding field. This eliminates the need for manual typing and reduces the risk of errors, making your review process more efficient.

New: Insights
We’ve added a brand-new Insights section to help you better understand how your agent performs. Get detailed metrics on accuracy, throughput, and intervention rates to identify where your workflows can improve.

New: Power Automate Trigger Integration
You can now trigger workflows directly in Microsoft Power Automate when key events occur in Cradl AI. This makes it easier than ever to connect your document automation to other business tools and streamline end-to-end processes.

We’ve made several improvements and bug fixes in the Review section for a smoother and more reliable validation process. Expect faster loading, better navigation, and improved annotation handling.
