  1. Enhance OCR accuracy to distinguish currency symbol and number

    Currently, in Document Matching, Form Extraction, etc., a currency symbol such as "￥" is recognized as a number"1" or "7" when extracting the amount of money, especially if it is handwritten.
    Ideally, improve the accuracy of OCR to distinguish between currency symbol and number.

  2. Recognition of alternative decimal / a thousand separators

    There a many types of documents which use alternative decimal / a thousand separators such as in tax forms or payroll registers. These forms or system print-outs often use pre-set bars or grids to separates figures. It would be extremely helpful if DataSnipper could detect the logic behind these formats and extract information correctly.

  3. OCR Health Score

    Implement a confidence scoring system to provide users with insights into the accuracy of OCR-extracted text. I envision this feature offering both document-level and word/number-level confidence scores, empowering users to evaluate the reliability of the extracted data and make informed decisions.

    Granular Confidence Levels: Clearly define confidence score ranges (e.g., high, medium, low) and provide corresponding probability values for better interpretability.
    Visual Indicators: Incorporate visual cues (e.g., color-coding, icons) to quickly convey confidence levels, enhancing user experience.

  4. Export OCR PDF file >> keep OCR

    If I, after running OCR on a PDF, export the pdf to my computer, the text is unrecognized and I can't search it anymore using for example Acrobat. It would be nice and usefull if a PDF that was text recognised, stays that way after export.

  5. Provide further options for configuring private OCR endpoints

    Currently, it is only possible to authenticate to the OCR endpoint using an API key. There are other (more secure) authentication methods available to be configured on these resources within Azure. It would be beneficial if DataSnipper would support changing the authentication method that DataSnipper uses

  6. Run OCR only for the portions of that document which do not contain computer generated text

    OCR currently overwrites all computer generated text, sometimes with worse results. OCR may be required if a portion of the document contains computer generated text but a portion does not. In these instances it would be ideal to only run use the OCR to recognize the text that is not yet included in the text layer of the file.

  7. Dash to Zero Conversion

    Is it feasible to implement an automatic dash-to-zero conversion for numerical data extracted from tables? By identifying tables with primarily numerical values, the system could infer that dashes represent zeros and replace them accordingly. This feature would enhance user experience, especially when dealing with large datasets

  8. OCR - Punctuation standardisation - apostrophes & quote marks

    OCR - Punctuation standardisation - apostrophes & quote marks

    When running OCR on documents depending on font some punctuation, particularly apostrophes & quote marks, come out differently e.g. Group's vs. Group’s.

    This causes issues when using the financial statement suite & version compare features in particular as a lot false changes get flagged which muddy the waters significantly. If logic can be built in so the characters used for apostrophes & quote marks are consistent across the board that would be ideal, I think this setting would be best as the default and having an option to switch back to…

  9. Optimize PDF

    Create a button with alert when a PDF document is uploaded to run or save your document as Optimized to eliminate the meta data on a PDF document that can cause issues. Similar to how you run OCR by selecting button
