What is Receipts OCR API?
Receipts OCR API is an API (Application Programming Interface) that turns your receipts into data in seconds using AI. You can send receipts to the API in any format (pdf, image, etc) and receive the response in a structured (key/value) JSON irrespective of receipt structure, geography or language. Veryfi’s AI runs proprietary foundational models trained on hundreds of millions of receipts so it can understand all possible data (see supported fields) on these receipts and even those pesky taxes and handwriting in various geographies.

What is Receipts OCR?
Receipt OCR (optical character recognition or optical character reader) is the electronic or mechanical conversion of receipt images, receipt paper, and handwritten or printed text into machine-encoded text using software. This work traditionally required manual human labor but that was inefficient and ripe for mistakes. Veryfi Receipts OCR API will also return the OCR text in every JSON response for you to further customize the application of this data in your application for various purposes like automating expense management, validating loyalty programs and more.
