TransformIR Capture – Transform with Intelligent Recognition

Looking for an efficient data capture solution that can help you extract data from any document type accurately and save it in organized, keyword-searchable digital data files? Datamation’s TransformIR Capture solution delivers faster extraction of handwritten and machine-printed characters, from either scanned documents or existing digital data files in a smart and quick way.

TransformIR Capture is designed to help you lower the cost and time spent on document digitization processes by replacing the slow traditional methods of manual data entry and records keeping, with a more modern, automated system of data capture – Text Recognition and Image Capture Processing Software.

Leveraging on technologies such as Optical Character Recognition (OCR), Intelligent Character Recognition (ICR), and barcode recognition softwares, Datamation’s TransformIR Capture improves the process of extracting data from structured or semi-structured documents tremendously. The scanned documents are auto matched against existing templates for faster and more precise capture of data, then automatically indexed and archived into your document management system. The data capture process goes through rounds of strict matching, validation and verification processes to ensure the lowest possible error rates. Such processes involve enhancing the condition of the scanned document/imported files (e.g., words, handwriting images, charts), and using built-in data validation tests. Any documents can benefit from our intelligent data capture softwares, e.g. invoices, claim forms, purchase orders, deliver orders, emails and correspondence.

Special Features

TransformIR Capture is able to match the captured data, irrespective of any formats, structured (e.g., application forms), semi-structured (e.g., invoices, purchase orders, delivery orders) or unstructured documents (e.g., subjective exam answer books), with the existing template library for accurate extraction.

Optical Character Recognition (OCR)

Capture and convert machine-generated data from paper invoices, contracts, employee forms, scanned images, PDFs, and other electronic documents, and translate them into comprehensible, editable data.

BENEFITS:

  • Process different types of documents, e.g., paper invoices, XML variations, fax copies, PDFs, and images.
  • The extracted data will go through sets of data validation rules for improved quality.
  • Incorporate the use of dictionaries for automatic correction.
  • Scanned documents are auto-matched with previously processed documents, to accurately extract and process information faster, even from unidentified forms.
  • Crop and export images and field content within documents.
  • Unidentified documents at the recognition stage can be directed to an upper-level manager for further validation and action.
Intelligent Character Recognition (ICR)

Read, capture, and extract handwritten data from scanned documents and images such as invoices, application forms, claim forms, summary reports, performance reports, and timesheets, and transform them into digital data that is easy to understand and process by anyone.

BENEFITS:

  • Handwritten pattern database empowers the recognition of different styles of handwriting for improved precision.
  • Accurately extract information you need even from unknown forms, by auto matching your scanned documents with previous versions for faster data processing.
  • Built-in data validation procedures to help increase the accuracy of your data.
  • Automate the correction process via integrated use of dictionaries.
  • Issues that are unable to be resolved by a verifier can be routed to a more experienced staff or supervisor for further action.
Barcode & QR Code Recognition

Scan and read different types of barcode data quickly and accurately.

BENEFITS:
