Upload, recognise, process further.
Three modes for every need: plain text, positions with QR and barcodes, or the complete document analysis with tables and layout.

Text for speed, Grid for positions and codes, Complete for tables and layout. Every line comes with a bounding box and a confidence value, visible right on the page.
Search, extract, export
The document becomes full-text searchable, IDP Agents read fields on top of it, and you export as searchable PDF, Markdown or JSON.
Where AI-OCR runs
- Manual On one document, right in the app.
- Batch Hundreds of documents in one run.
- Workspace Automatically for every new document in the AI-DMS.
- Workflow AI As the first step before extraction and approval.
- REST API One call, text and positions back as JSON.
- MCP From Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor.
Pricing
Per page. Three modes.
You pay for processed pages only, the same price in app, API and MCP. No subscription, no base fee.

Capabilities
What AI-OCR reads.
Everything that happens in the app applies equally via API and MCP.
- Text in more than 120 languages
Printed or scanned, even mixed on one page. The language is detected automatically.
- Bounding boxes per line
Every recognised line comes with its position on the page. Verifiable for review, highlighting and extraction.
- Tables as data
Rows and columns are recognised and returned as structure, not as a text blob.
- QR and barcodes
Codes on receipts, delivery notes and labels are read along and returned.
- Skewed and poor scans
Faxes, smartphone photos and old copies are straightened and read.
- Handwriting
Handwritten notes, forms and signatures are recognised and returned with confidence.
- Searchable PDFs
Every document gets an invisible text layer and becomes full-text searchable in the archive.
- Foundation for IDP Agents
IDP Agents read fields on top of the OCR layer. One run, both results.

Questions and answers
Everything about AI-OCR
What sets AI-OCR apart from classic OCR?
Classic OCR recognises characters without context. AI-OCR understands the page: layout, tables, handwriting and context. Every line comes with a confidence value and a bounding box so you can trace the result on the page.
Which formats and languages are read?
PDF, including multi-page, plus JPEG, PNG, TIFF, BMP, WebP and HEIC. Scans, smartphone photos, faxes and screenshots. More than 120 languages, detected automatically.
What do the three modes mean?
Text delivers fast plain text. Grid adds positions per line plus QR and barcodes. Complete additionally delivers tables and layout structure. You choose the mode per call or per workspace.
How accurate is the recognition and how do I verify it?
AI-OCR reads printed text, handwriting and mixed layouts, even with skewed pages and poor scan quality. How good the result is depends on the source and scan quality. Every line carries a confidence value and a bounding box so you can trace each result on the page and review low-confidence lines first.
Are tables returned as data?
Yes. In Complete mode, rows and columns are recognised and returned as structure, even across several pages. Line items and bank statements land directly as a table in your target system.
What does AI-OCR cost?
Per processed page, depending on the mode from €0.01. €1 equals 1,000 credits and the same prices apply in app, API and MCP. No subscription and no base fee.
Does AI-OCR run automatically in the archive?
Yes. In the workspace every new document is recognised automatically, receives a text layer and becomes full-text searchable. IDP Agents and workflows build on top of it.
Where are my documents processed?
In own data centers in the EU on own hardware. Encrypted with AES-256 and TLS 1.3, processed on RAM disk, deleted after completion. ISO 27001 and SOC 2 Type II are active.
