YOURPDI — ALL VALUABLE DOCUMENTS IN ONE PLACE

YourPDi wanted to provide its users with a safe and secure platform to store all the documents that are important and valuable to them. It wanted to offer a quick, easy, and secure way to share passwords, important stuff about home, family, and work within groups made specifically for these categories. The document management system, created with Virtual Force, was to be accessible from anywhere so users always had a convenient way of viewing, editing and sharing documents and information which mattered and when it mattered.

Virtual Force was engaged with the founding team at YourPDi since the conception stage. Team VF lead the ideation, and design and development phases to launch the document management system. In the initial 6 months after its launch in April 2018, the app acquired over 6,000 users, a number that is growing every month.

Key Features of the Document Management System

Document Creation

Documents can be easily created either within the 5 main predefined categories or by creating a new custom category. For each category, users can see a predefined format to fill out and they can alter it as per need. Attachments can be uploaded directly or imported from other applications such as Gmail, Google Photos, etc.

Built-In Scanning and OCR

Any document such as passports and loyalty cards can be scanned and the data is populated automatically through OCR into the predefined forms within the app.

Document Searching

Elastic search allows searching within the document content allowing for an extensive search capability.
