How is your service going to be different from existing file conversion services like zamzar.com, convertfiles.com etc ?

Thanks for asking. The main difference is focus on depth instead of breadth - thus instead of multitude of possible output formats support only few (PDF/HTML/TXT/IMG), but with some added features. Just few examples: - bulk search and autoredactions (marking / blacking out parts of documents that match certain queries) - signature and handwriting detection - tokenization (for TXT output) - language detection (for TXT/PDF output) - named entity detection (for TXT/PDF output)

Potential customers are people developing systems for GDPR (data protection), fraud detection, eDiscovery and content management.

If you are doing some kind of intense annotation probably your most important thing is having an output format that supports the annotation you want to do -- not necessarily supporting any.

I have been thinking about universal annotation and the formats that I find the most interesting are PDF (because so much content exists in PDF) and HTML (open, easy to work with.)
