Overview
The Tagger node turns your documents into intelligent assets by embedding metadata, barcodes, and cryptographic tags that travel with the document—whether digital or printed. Acting as both a metadata generator and a document authenticator, Tagger ensures every document can be instantly recognized, validated, and routed when it re-enters your system. Available as an API, in-flow module, or printer driver, Tagger solves the round-trip problem and provides a permanent digital passport for every document.
Capabilities
-
Metadata-Driven Barcodes
Automatically generate and attach barcodes enriched with extracted or system-originated metadata from the Receiver.
-
Printer Driver Integration
Operate as a virtual printer to intercept prints and embed tags or extract metadata seamlessly.
-
Taxonomy Validation
Enforce your document taxonomy by validating required metadata before issuing a tag.
-
Multi-Source Metadata Extraction
Populate tags using AI Extractor, intercepted print metadata, and API integrations.
-
Customizable Visual Tags
Create organization-branded, subtle, or fully customized tagging formats.
-
Tamper-Proof Tagging
Embed compressed, encrypted copies of the original image to guarantee authenticity and detect alterations.
Benefits
-
Instant Recognition
Automatically identify documents on re-entry to eliminate manual sorting and prevent duplicates.
-
End-to-End Traceability
Ensure every document's origin, version, and metadata are preserved across print, scan, and digital circulation.
-
Improved Processing Speed
Enable downstream nodes like Splitter, Extractor, and Classifier to operate with higher accuracy and throughput.
-
Brand & Security Control
Maintain visual consistency while embedding cryptographically secure identity markers.

FAQ
Tagger embeds business context, metadata, and authentication data; not just an ID. It creates smart documents that your entire workflow can interpret.
Yes. Tagger both issues tags digitally and recognizes them when printed, scanned, and re-uploaded, solving the round-trip problem.
Absolutely. Tags can be branded, minimized, stylized, or invisible to users while remaining fully machine-readable.
Yes. It can include encrypted thumbnails or hashes to verify authenticity and detect alterations.
Using metadata from the Receiver, AI-based extraction, printer-driver interception, or external APIs.
Yes. It validates against your document taxonomy to ensure correctness and completeness.
