Case Study: Pursuit Transforms Public Sector Insights with LlamaParse

Pursuit is on a mission to streamline how businesses navigate the public sector. With tools designed to eliminate the friction of selling into public agencies. Pursuit does this in a multitude of ways but one way is they empower companies to discover opportunities hidden within the vast array of public sector documents—strategic plans, budgets, meeting transcripts, and more. However, effectively extracting meaningful insights from these documents posed a significant challenge.

The Challenge

Pursuit needed a scalable solution to parse and organize millions of public sector documents across tens of thousands of entities in the United States. Their public sector focus meant crawling the web and processing diverse document types, including budgets, strategic plans, and council meeting transcripts from over 90,000 entities.

The challenge was not just in crawling, downloading, and storing this data but making it usable—creating a solution that would allow for easy searchability and actionable insights for their clients. Pursuit wanted to create a robust system that could match website content, extract key information, and enable advanced retrieval capabilities.

The Solution: LlamaParse

Pursuit partnered with LlamaIndex to leverage LlamaParse, a state-of-the-art document parsing platform built to parse documents for LLM applications. By implementing LlamaParse, Pursuit achieved the following:

• Scalable Document Parsing: LlamaParse provided Pursuit with the ability to parse millions of pages in a single scalable framework. In one weekend alone, Pursuit was able to parse 4 million pages, making large-scale document ingestion feasible and efficient.
• Accurate Data Extraction: LlamaParse provides a high level of accuracy even with complex document formats. This allowed Pursuit to extract key pieces of information from tables, figures, scanned images and unstructured content, enabling their clients to filter data by specific parameters. For their datasets, Pursuit saw a 25-30% increase in accuracy scores.

Impact

LlamaParse's accurate and fast extraction had a transformative impact on Pursuit's customers:

• Increased Opportunity Discovery: The filtered, searchable database of parsed documents allowed Pursuit's clients to identify potential opportunities that were previously hidden in the unstructured data, such as new public safety initiatives or untapped funding streams.
• Effective Account Targeting: Leveraging the LlamaParse-powered data, Pursuit provided its clients with targeted insights into the top public safety initiatives across all accounts, enabling more strategic engagement and a higher success rate in winning public sector contracts.

Pursuit revolutionized how they and their clients interact with public sector data by leveraging LlamaParse. The scalability, speed, and accuracy of LlamaParse allowed Pursuit to transform their offerings and enhance their ability to serve B2G sellers effectively.
