Overview
The Effi Document Analyser automatically validates and reviews client-uploaded documents for accuracy, completeness, compliance, and potential fraud.
It combines document verification with AI-powered fraud detection to ensure files are authentic, correctly formatted, and properly stored.
Once triggered, the system checks for:
- Expiry dates
- Required time periods
- Correct document types
- Applicant matching
- Naming convention compliance
- Potential document tampering or manipulation
- Financial and ABN anomalies
Validated documents are automatically renamed and filed into SharePoint according to your broker group’s structure.
This improves document quality, reduces follow-ups, enhances compliance, and minimises fraud risk.

This guide outlines how to:

Supported Document Types

How It Works
1. Upload Required Document
Upload a payslip or other supported document types
Documents can be uploaded via:
- Client (Consumer) Portal
- Broker Portal
To upload:
- Access the Consumer Portal.
- Open the upload section.
- Upload the required documents (e.g., payslip, passport, driver’s licence).

Step 2: Access Submitted Documents
- Open the Lead or Deal.
- Navigate to Documents.
- Click View Request to see requested files.
- Review all submitted documents.
Step 3: Run Document Analysis
Brokers can trigger analysis in two ways:
- Automatically, when the document pack is 100% complete, or
-
Manually at any time
To run manually:
- Open the deal.
- Go to the Documents tab.
- Click 'Analyse with AI'.
- Wait for the process to complete.
The analyser will:
- Validate document rules

- Flag issues
- Auto-rename valid files
- File approved documents into SharePoint
What Happens After Analysis
After processing is complete:
- Passed documents are renamed and filed in SharePoint
- Warnings remain available for broker review
