Reads, what others
can’t decipher

IDA Recognition delivers best-in-class OCR accuracy for both handwritten and printed text — even from poor scans, faded records, and historical scripts.

What makes IDA Recognition different

Poor data quality at the start creates compounding costs down the line. Recognition errors don’t stay contained, they cascade into classification, extraction, and every AI application that follows. IDA Recognition addresses the problem at the source, reliably reading faded ink, skewed scans, physician handwriting, and historical scripts like Kurrent.

Patented PerceptionMatrix

Most OCR systems commit to a single interpretation and frequently get it wrong on difficult documents. The PerceptionMatrix preserves all possible transcriptions in a lossless metadata format. The result: measurably higher accuracy, validated in benchmark tests against commercial and open-source alternatives.

  • Lossless representation of all reading alternatives

  • Validated in benchmarks against competitors

Wide range of applications

IDA Recognition handles printed and handwritten text, checkboxes, and table structures — even in distorted or misaligned scans. No prior binarization required.

  • Machine print, handwriting, and mixed documents

  • 15+ languages with automatic language detection

  • Historical scripts as add-on: Kurrent, Sütterlin, Gothic typefaces

Simple integration

IDA Recognition runs on-premises or in the cloud, as a Java application or Docker container. Integration into existing systems is straightforward via gRPC or REST API.

  • Full data sovereignty

  • Client-server application or SDK integration
