Receipt OCR API
for Real-Time
Data Extraction
Veryfi OCR API extracts, categorizes and enriches all the detail from unstructured consumer purchase receipts, invoices and bills down to line-items (SKU-level purchase data) at scale; without the use of traditional limitations like templates or humans-in-the-loop.
How Receipt OCR Works
What is Receipt OCR?
Receipt OCR (optical character recognition or optical character reader) is the electronic or mechanical conversion of receipt images, receipt paper, handwritten or printed text into machine-encoded text using software. Typically a picture is taken using Veryfi’s Lens app (a scanned document), a photo of a receipt document, emailed receipt or a PDF of receipt or receipts and then having the OCR software pull out (transform) into text avoiding the labor work that’s often required to use such data for bookkeeping (in accounting) or business intelligence.
Receipt OCR is a part of successful machine based data extraction in data transformation automation to save costs, remove labor burdens and create new product offerings. Veryfi uses Receipt OCR with machine processes such as cognitive computing, machine translation, (extracted) text-to-speech, key data and text mining, pattern recognition, artificial intelligence and computer vision to automate accounting in new transformative ways.
