Capturing content (and not just from paper docs)
Converting paper-based documents saves paper and increases process efficiency for the lifecycle of that document. Capture will accurately copy the document and remove artifacts, making it clear and concise. Accurate OCR (Optical Character Recognition) and automatic data extraction saves you the trouble of human error and the time consuming task of manual data entry.
Below you can find a selection of software that can provide your business with quick and efficient methods for document data capture.
Tungsten Automation (formerly Kofax)
Enhance and automate data input
Capture: Automate information capture from scanned paper or imported electronic documents. Validate and export your crucial business information to any document/content management platform.
Transformation Modules: Advanced automatic document classification with learned template generation, page separation and rule-based data extraction.
VRS (Virtual ReScan): Can be combined with Tungsten Automation Capture applications or installed alongside other third-party capture tools (such as PacSol FastScan II) to enhance quality of scanned images and improve efficiency of document capture processes.
IBM Datacap
Complex multi-lingual data capture
IBM Datacap scans, classifies, recognizes, validates, verifies, and exports data and document images quickly, accurately and cost effectively.
By combining common recognition engines for OCR, ICR, OMR and barcodes with libraries of hundreds of script-based and code-based (.NET) actions, IBM Datacap accurately captures data from any type of structured, highly variable, or unstructured documents.
By using the IBM Datacap rules engine, data capture can be tailored to fit the most demanding business requirements and can be changed quickly when your business needs to adapt.
IBM Datacap streamlines the input of index data by accurately identifying the document and using recognition to automatically capture the required values on each document for export to a content management platform.
FastScan II
Data capture essentials from PacSol
Because sometimes you just need a straightforward capture application that produces high quality, error free document images without fuss.
PacSol’s own simplified capture application FastScan II has been designed to support a simple, no-fuss document capture process whilst retaining powerful image processing abilities via Tungsten Automation VRS integration for crisp, clear images.
The application is compatible with standard scanner manufacturer drivers and the output can be customised for ingestion / storage on a whole range of platforms.
