AI-powered MTR automation tailored for accuracy, compliance, and client-specific intelligence.
At Star Software, our MTR automation platform redefines how manufacturers, distributors, and processors handle quality documentation. By combining advanced OCR, AI-driven data validation, and seamless integration capabilities, we have helped clients across metals and manufacturing industries achieve complete accuracy, faster turnaround, and better compliance.
Star’s MTR engine extracts complex data — from heat numbers to tensile strength — and transforms unstructured documents into structured, searchable digital records. With a flexible rules engine and deep integration options, the platform adapts to diverse client environments — ensuring that each quality certificate is compliant, validated, and instantly retrievable.
A proven suite of intelligent features shaping the future of quality documentation.
Locks a document while a user is editing to prevent simultaneous modifications. Authorized users can override the lock when necessary.
Prevents conflicting edits, ensuring data integrity and version control.
Allows creation of pre-receipts based on product descriptions if data exists in the Pre-Receipt table.
Streamlines pre-inspection and material receiving workflows.
Allows users to compare extracted chemical data against selected standards (e.g., ASTM/ASME grades). Color-coded output: red (non-compliant), yellow (undefined), white (compliant).
Visual validation of chemical compliance with industry standards.
Similar to the chemical comparison, this feature compares mechanical properties against standards and color-codes the results.
Ensures instant mechanical compliance verification and transparency.
Uses Large Language Model (AI) to automatically display product descriptions with related heat, chemical, and mechanical data directly from documents.
Introduces generative AI capability for contextual data interpretation.
Advanced “View Document” module allows processing and keyword-based searching (Google-like). Users can view and filter documents by labels and keywords.
Speeds up document retrieval and validation with AI-powered search.
Hybrid OCR + AI model that extracts heat number, material grade, chemical composition, mechanical properties, PO, certificate number, manufacturer details, etc. without training.
Rapid, high-accuracy capture reduces manual entry and errors.
Automatic mapping of mechanical parameter names/values by unit system (ksi, MPa, etc.).
Correct interpretation of mechanical data across unit systems; avoids unit conversion errors.
Automated pass/fail emails, failure alerts, and reviewer notifications for low-confidence or validation issues.
Faster exception handling; clear communication to stakeholders.
Enforces required fields (e.g., Coil No, Heat No) and generates Excel summaries for chemistry/mechanical data.
Regulatory traceability and simple reporting for audits or downstream users.
Auto-detects single-vendor vs multi-vendor MTR / Quality certificates documents packets; splits or merges accordingly and assigns by cert no.
Eliminates manual sorting; correct vendor assignment and indexing.
Confidence scoring for extracted fields; low-confidence items flagged for human review with reviewer correction UI.
Balances automation with human QA; improves long-term model accuracy.
Search by PO#, Heat#, Description, ALT code, partial keywords; OCR-tolerant fuzzy search for scanned docs.
Quickly locate records despite OCR errors or partial info; improves user productivity.
Stable sessions for continuous use; upload from email or vendor portals accepted.
Smooth operational workflows and vendor integrations.
Heuristics to combine pages belonging to a single MTR or split multi-vendor scans correctly.
Preserves document integrity and reduces manual rework.
Generate customer-specific reporting formats (Excel sheets with chemical, mechanical and coil/heat summaries).
Readily consumable reports for customers, QC teams and auditors.
System tracks confidence metrics and retrains or updates extraction rules per client feedback.
Continuous model improvement and reduced manual review over time.
Processing and converting multi-page TIFFs and other complex scanned formats with full extraction across pages.
Supports legacy/complex file formats; guarantees no data loss across pages.
Experience the precision, scalability, and reliability that make Star Software the preferred partner for metals and manufacturing leaders worldwide.
