Reading
Scans and phone photographs, including skewed ones and those of less than ideal quality.
It only makes sense at volume. A dozen documents a month is cheaper to type than to automate.
Scans and phone photographs, including skewed ones and those of less than ideal quality.
The software recognises whether it is an invoice, a delivery note, an act or a contract.
Number, date, amounts, counterparty, line items. Tuned to your own forms.
Reconciliation with the accounting system: does the counterparty exist, does the amount match the order.
A screen showing the document itself alongside what was extracted from it.
Once confirmed, the document is created in the accounting system.
A pilot on one document type takes a month to six weeks including tuning it to your forms.
How many documents, of what kinds, and how much time typing takes now.
Real documents in all their variety, including frankly poor scans.
We train it on your forms and measure the accuracy on a held-back sample.
We connect it to the live flow, train the operators and keep it under watch for the first month.
Perfect accuracy does not exist and cannot be relied on. The realistic bar is eighty-five to ninety-five percent of fields extracted correctly; a person corrects the rest. The gain is still substantial, but the verification step has to stay. Removing it on the grounds that the software is clever is a sure way to end up with distorted records.
Take a hundred documents of one type a month as the benchmark. Below that, setup and support cost more than typing. Count in operator hours rather than in sheets of paper.
The software usually copes with skew and low resolution. It copes worse with crumpled paper photographed on a phone in poor light. Input quality hits accuracy directly, and sometimes it is easier to agree with the supplier that they send electronic documents.
Far more sensible, and it is the first thing we suggest. Recognition is for the counterparties who have no intention of moving to electronic exchange. With the rest it is wiser to agree on direct file transfer than to invest in reading scans.
Tell us which documents and how many a month. We will judge whether recognition pays off or it is easier to agree on electronic exchange.
