From Pixels to Insights: Seamlessly Extracting and Visualizing Table Data with Unstructured and Hex

A new notebook demonstrates the integration of Unstructured's table extraction capabilities with Hex's data processing and visualization tools, enabling users to transform scanned images of tables into interactive graphs. By copying the notebook to their Hex workspace and directing it to a URL containing the desired table, users can experiment with their own data. This workflow, which currently involves some preprocessing steps and natural language commands, plans to offer a no-code version in the future through the Unstructured Platform. The process begins with ingesting a PDF of tables using the Unstructured Serverless API, which can then be converted into graphs via Hex Magic, allowing users to explore their data interactively.
