Power your document applications with fast, accurate data capture.

ABBYY FlexiCapture SDK includes the latest version of ABBYY OCR/ICR technologies. It provides the best recognition quality for more than 209 OCR languages, including Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, and Korean. This simplifies localization of application development and enables to meet global customers’ needs more easily.

ABBYY FlexiCapture SDK provides intelligent data extraction for certain fields. The technology looks for the fields on the document and analyzes the areas around them. To enhance the results, developers can use built-in field extraction training to more accurately define the position of fields and recurring groups on a page of a structured or a semi-structured document. The training starts right when an end-user starts working with documents.

FlexiCapture SDK allows developers to implement training for field extraction and classification technology to improve accuracy of field extraction and classification.

The technology learns based on feedback provided from end users. This feedback may be collected in any third-party component for verification, be implemented by the developer, and contain information on correct field regions (to train the field extraction technology) and on correct image classes (to train the classification technology).

Now developers can improve images, including images captured by mobile devices, both manually and automatically. The feature allows developers to work with the complex backgrounds of documents like IDs, insurance policies, etc. For instance, the following image corrections can be applied:

• Automatic correction of resolution

• Overwriting resolution of the image to a specified resolution

• Correction of the image skew angle based on black separators, black squares, or text

• Conversion of the image to black and white

• Rotation, inversion, and mirroring of the image

• Reduction of ISO noise

• Removing of color marks and garbage

• Automatic crop of the image

It is also possible to apply a pre-configured image enhancement profile to images.

Advanced document classification helps sort incoming documents into categories using a pre-configured classifier available via API. The classification technologies are highly flexible and can be used to distinguish:

The classification technology uses two approaches:

Using both of these approaches enables the most reliable classification results. FlexiCapture SDK provides the API to train a classifier from scratch and uses the trained classifier inside the application to speed up document processing.

The newest release of FlexiCapture SDK with Natural Language Processing (NLP) extends its capture capabilities to now include unstructured documents such as contracts, leases, articles, and agreements. With NLP technology, you can automate more business processes that require manual data entry and quickly make important document data available in your business applications to save time, money, and labor. The quality of data extraction continuously improves through additional training of NLP models by the user feedback, reducing the cost and time spent on verification.

Increase the efficiency of document processing with barcode recognition. ABBYY FlexiCapture SDK leverages powerful barcode recognition technology that can read wide range of barcode types. Now Neural Networks based, it allows extracting barcodes from various documents and is able to detect objects of arbitrary shape at a wide range of aspect ratios.
