Document capture is the process of converting paper-based or digital documents into structured, usable data. It includes scanning, OCR (Optical Character Recognition), and data extraction. In modern businesses, document capture is no longer just about digitisation, it’s about intelligent capture that automates workflows and drives efficiency.
Sometimes referred to as "documentalism capture" in legacy enterprise systems, document capture has evolved into a smart, AI-powered solution that integrates with ERP and financial tools to streamline operations.
Adopting AI-powered document capture technology brings measurable gains across your financial operations.
Here are the main benefits that intelligent capture provides:
Efficiency
Automate the extraction of data from invoices and business documents, reducing manual entry.
Accuracy
Use intelligent capture models to minimise human errors and improve data quality.
Scalability
Capture and process thousands of documents with minimal oversight.
Compliance
Ensure document traceability and meet digital archiving regulations.
Faster payments
Speed up accounts payable cycles through intelligent invoice capture.
Intelligent document capture is the use of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning to understand and extract data from structured and unstructured documents automatically. This includes invoices, receipts, contracts, and purchase orders.
Unlike traditional OCR, AI document capture learns from patterns and adapts to new layouts, making it more accurate and scalable.
