Could you build this?

Partial Comparing artwork against product specs with OCR, layout checks, and an LLM is buildable with vibe coding, and the review and routing workflow is standard. Reliable print QA needs prepress and color-accuracy expertise and integration with real packaging pipelines.

What it would actually take: The core is a document ingestion pipeline (PDF and image parsing, OCR, and layout extraction) plus a rules and LLM engine that compares fields against approved specs. A credible product needs prepress domain knowledge (barcodes, regulatory text, color profiles, die lines) and validated test sets of real packaging files from customers. Those datasets and pilots with packaging teams are the scarce resource.
