Finding answers in scanned manuals

AI-generated illustration
01

Challenge

Technical answers and drawings were buried in scanned manuals. Engineers needed a way to ask questions without searching the archive page by page.

02

Solution

I built a web application combining Azure AI Search with agents for document questions and guided troubleshooting, with controlled access to the backend and source material.

03

Result

The pilot provided a working way to test questions and troubleshooting steps against the document archive.
