Introduction
For years, businesses have relied on OCR (Optical Character Recognition) to digitize documents and invoices. But OCR simply “reads” characters—it doesn’t understand what they mean. And it certainly doesn’t correct, validate, or enrich the data it captures.
As demands for automation and data accuracy grow, one thing becomes increasingly clear: OCR is no longer enough.
OCR: The First Step in Automation
OCR can recognize “1234” as a number. But it doesn’t know whether that number represents a tax ID, an amount, a date, or an order number. It doesn’t distinguish fields. It can’t detect errors or missing values. It doesn’t learn or improve over time.
While it remains a useful tool, OCR falls short of meeting the needs of modern businesses.
AI-Driven Extraction: The Leap to Understanding
PaperEntry.AI leverages Generative AI (LLMs + LMMs) to offer far more than just character recognition:
- It understands the structure and context of any kind of document.
- It automatically identifies the correct data fields, regardless of layout or format.
- It applies validation logic and fills in missing information.
- It learns continuously and improves through use.
PaperEntry.AI: The Evolution of OCR
PaperEntry.AI:
- Goes beyond recognition – it offers understanding and intelligence.
- Requires no templates or specific document formats.
- Needs no configuration – it delivers value from day one.
If you’re ready to move from “just digitizing” to “understanding, validating, and automating,” it’s time to meet PaperEntry.AI.
