    "patent_abstract": "Embodiments relate to providing granular level document security with role-based access. A technique includes determining, by a first artificial intelligence (AI) model, segments of a document and generating, by a second AI model, tags for the segments of the document, the tags being unique identifiers for the segments. The technique includes defining permissions for the tags in an access control table based on a plurality of identifications, an identification being in the plurality of identifications. The technique includes, in response to receiving the identification with a request to access the document, extracting the tags permitted for the identification from the access control table, and filtering the document according to the segments for the tags permitted for the identification. The technique includes, in response to the request to access the document, causing the document that is filtered to be rendered with the segments for the tags permitted for the identification.",
