What is Bank Check OCR?

Bank check OCR, or Optical Character Recognition, is a technology that allows banks and financial institutions to efficiently process and digitize handwritten or printed checks. This technology works by using image processing algorithms to analyze and extract relevant data from the check, such as the payer’s name, the amount of money, the date, and account and routing numbers. Bank check OCR eliminates the need for manual data entry, which saves time and reduces the likelihood of errors. This technology has become increasingly popular in recent years due to its ability to improve the speed and accuracy of mobile deposit check processing, making it an essential tool for banks and other financial institutions. Bank check OCR uses Veryfi Lens to capture all the aspects and intricacies inside a bank check.

Implementing bank check OCR involves using specialized software that can read and interpret the information on the check. The software typically uses advanced algorithms and machine learning techniques to extract data from checks. With the help of bank check OCR, banks can process checks faster and with greater accuracy, reducing the risk of fraud and improving customer service. In addition, this technology can be used to store digital records of checks, which can be easily accessed and analyzed, providing valuable insights into customer behavior. Overall, bank check OCR is a powerful tool for banks and financial institutions looking to streamline their operations and improve their bottom line.
