Incode’s in-house developed Optical Character Recognition (OCR) technology extracts and processes data from thousands of global identity document types, ensuring fewer data discrepancies and enhanced fraud detection.

Many general-purpose OCR technologies on the market fail to meet the requirements of fast-moving businesses.
Basic OCR cannot handle diverse documents worldwide because it lacks ML models trained on large, varied ID datasets.

Fonts with various shapes and styles often confuse basic OCR, leading to errors unless the system is trained to handle them.

Handling multiple languages challenges OCR, especially when scripts use many characters, diacritical marks, or different reading directions.

Special symbols, like those on US bank checks, are often missed by general OCR systems that are not trained to detect them.

OCR struggles with poor contrast, cluttered layouts, and overlapping objects. It can also misread similar documents such as permits and licenses.

OCR that relies on third parties adapts slowly, often misreading government documents with new elements the models do not recognize.

Poor lighting, shadows, stains, or tears can reduce even advanced OCR accuracy and reliability.

Refinement
Our ML models handle all the heavy lifting, making every user interaction feel effortless. By delivering improved results, even in suboptimal conditions, we save our users time and minimize the need for manual intervention.
Features such as smart frame selection, automatic ID orientation detection, and real-time feedback help to ensure our process is straightforward and easy to navigate. By simplifying and speeding up the process, we boost completion rates and drive conversions.

Incode OCR outperforms open-source and general purpose solutions. With ongoing benchmarking and bias analysis, we ensure consistent accuracy across document types, languages, and visual conditions.
Our OCR delivers higher accuracy across diverse document types, outperforming general-purpose solutions in key fields such as name, address, birthplace, document number, expiry date, and machine-readable zones (MRZ).
Verified reviews, certifications, and customer stories show the impact of Incode’s technology.
