Data Processing Flow

Antei transforms unstructured financial and operational data from external systems into validated, compliance-ready records using a structured and secure processing pipeline.

This page outlines how ingestion, extraction, mapping, classification, validation, and storage work together.


Overview of the Flow

1

1. Data Ingestion

Raw data is pulled via integrations (e.g., Stripe, QuickBooks) using scheduled syncs, webhooks, or on-demand jobs. CSV imports are also supported.

2

2. Extraction Workers

Cloudflare Workers standardize and transform raw payloads into structured entities (invoices, transactions, contacts, etc.) with metadata.

3

3. Mapping & Enrichment

Extracted data is mapped to Antei’s internal schema using registry-driven logic. Classification metadata is attached at the field level.

4

4. Validation Engine

Each entity is validated for schema completeness, reference links (e.g., contact → transaction), and duplication. Unprocessed records are flagged.

5

5. Unprocessed Item Handling

Incomplete or unmatched records are moved to the unprocessed queue. Users can review, complete, or override values through manual intervention.

6

6. Structured Storage

Clean, normalized data is written to the system of record with classification and retention rules applied automatically.


Architecture Snapshot

📌 Visual architecture coming soon — this will illustrate how ingestion, workers, and validation modules interact with Xano, Cloudflare, and storage layers.


Key Guarantees

  • ✅ All data is encrypted in transit and at rest
  • ✅ No external data is written back to source systems
  • ✅ Every step is logged and auditable
  • ✅ Each entity is tied to an extracted_id and payload_id for traceability
