OCR

Coverage in development

Optical character recognition (OCR) converts printed or handwritten characters in images into machine-readable text.

Definition

Optical character recognition (OCR) converts printed or handwritten characters in images into machine-readable text.

Plain English explanation

It reads text out of photos and scanned pages.

Why it matters

OCR matters for enterprise buyers and researchers because it signals a concrete technical approach rather than a marketing category. Matching companies by technology helps compare vendors that share methods even when they sit in different sectors.

Common use cases

  • Product features that explicitly rely on OCR
  • Platform or pipeline tooling built around OCR
  • Operational workflows where OCR is the primary AI method disclosed by the company
