Automate the Management of Your Mill Test Reports, From Reception to Anonymization.

Demo

On a weekly basis, metal and steels companies can handle dozens, sometimes hundreds, of Mill Test Reports (MTRs). These documents are essential technical documents in the industry – they guarantee the traceability and conformity of the materials used. Each report contains data such as casting number, chemical composition, mechanical test results… In short, information as critical as it is sensitive.

But processing these reports doesn’t just mean reading them: it also means classifying, validating, anonymizing and retrieving them on demand. And all this, often by hand. This highly repetitive work mobilizes hours of skilled resources for low-value tasks. It’s a source of errors and cognitive fatigue, and ends up distracting teams from what really matters.

Facing this challenge? That’s exactly what our AI-driven prototype is here for.

Before diving into how our prototype helps, let’s take a step back. Because if you’ve ever had to handle a Mill Test Report — or worse, explain one to someone outside your team — you know how dense and critical these documents are.

Here’s a quick primer to ground the conversation.

No slides. No sales talk. Just a hands-on walkthrough of what automation looks like when it’s built for real-life operations.

Mill Test 101: the certificate that ensures your steel strength

The Mill Test Report, or material certificate, is often what makes the difference between a compliant project and a technical disaster. But what is this document really for, and why should you care about it?

What is a Mill Test Report (MTR)?

A Mill Test Report is an official document issued by the steel manufacturer. It contains detailed information about the chemical and mechanical properties of a batch of steel, including:

The chemical composition (e.g., carbon percentage, manganese, etc.)
The results of mechanical tests (tensile strength, hardness, elasticity)
The standards to which the steel conforms (ASTM, CSA, etc.)
The heat number and batch number
The producer’s name and the signature of the quality manager

Meet the prototype: your AI-powered MTR assistant

Let’s face it — no one became a quality manager, buyer, or production coordinator to spend their days opening PDFs, highlighting test results, or anonymizing data line by line.

That’s where our prototype comes in.

1. Designed to remove the manual overhead of handling MTRs, this tool helps you process documents faster, more accurately, and with zero technical training required.
2. Whether you want to find a document by heat number, identify sensitive test data, or anonymize a report before sharing, the system does it for you. In seconds. Not hours.

Even better? You can trigger the whole process by simply sending an email.

How it works?

We’ve built the automation around the way your team already works, no new systems, no disruption.

Option 1 – Use the interface
Enter a heat number, preview key pages, anonymize sensitive data. Done in seconds.

Option 2 – Send a PDF by email
Email a report — the system auto-indexes it for future processing.

Option 3 – Request a redacted copy
Need an anonymized version? Email a command with a heat number.
You’ll get the redacted PDF in return. No clicks. Just results.

What makes it smart?

Context-aware AI: detects test results that don’t belong to your selected heat number and proposes them for masking.
Automatic redaction: black rectangles are permanently applied to sensitive data.
Searchable interface: fast, clean and bilingual (EN/FR).
Email-first design: works even for non-technical users.

In short: we’ve taken the pain out of the process — and left only what matters.
