Many businesses still depend on traditional OCR to process documents, but that’s no longer enough. In a world where the speed, accuracy, and flexibility of data are more important than ever, Intelligent Document Processing (IDP) offers a smarter, AI-powered alternative.
This guide compares OCR and IDP side by side to help you identify potential shortcomings in your current process and demonstrates how to transition to faster, more accurate, and scalable document workflows.
Whether you’re in Finance, Procurement, or Shared Services, this guide will help you evaluate the key differences in accuracy, scalability, and automation; the hidden costs of relying on OCR; and what a shift to IDP might entail.
What you’ll learn:
- Why OCR can’t handle today’s document complexity
- How IDP leverages AI for real-time validation and classification
- Where companies save time and reduce errors with IDP
- What implementation looks like — and how fast you can go live
Who it’s for:
This guide is ideal for:
- Finance and Procurement decision-makers
- IT leaders evaluating automation tools
- Teams looking to eliminate document bottlenecks
