A2iA Awarded Patent for Semi-Automated Keying Functionality

A2iA, a developer of software for data capture, document processing, and payment systems markets, has been granted a patent for its semi-automated keying functionality by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office. The software improves the speed of processing columnar data, including both printed and handwritten information. 

Part of the A2iA DocumentReader, a software toolkit, the patented capabilities enable users to perform point-and-click extraction from full columns of information, such as invoices, explanations of benefits (EOBs), lockbox banking statements, and other tabular formatted documents. 

Because of its complexity, columnar data traditionally requires manual keying, which can be expensive and error-prone. By allowing an operator to capture alpha, numeric, and alpha-numeric information such as identification numbers, codes, and dates, manual keying can be reduced, enabling greater efficiency in document processing.
