I'm curious about how much Textract can really do. Is it purely an OCR tool that only extracts text from images, or can it actually help analyze structured data as well? For instance, I have an Excel sheet full of time entries from lawyers, and I'm looking to pull out insights like how many interviews or witnesses were recorded. Can Textract assist with this?

If your data is already in a structured format like a spreadsheet, using Excel's built-in tools, such as pivot tables, might be a better option for extracting insights.
Right? Using Excel directly can save you a lot of time instead of complicating things with Textract.
