Scanbot Data Capture SDK
scanbot.io
What it is
Scanbot Data Capture SDK provides modules that extract key-value pairs from structured documents, with the aim of replacing manual data entry with automatic capture. Modules cover credit cards, checks, vehicle identification numbers, OCR, text patterns, EHIC cards, German medical certificates, and ID cards. Credit card capture reads the card number, cardholder name, and expiration date for Visa, Mastercard, and American Express. Check capture reads MICR details such as check, routing, and account numbers, with support for US, French, Kuwaiti, Australian, Indian, Israeli, UAE, and Canadian formats. The SDK supports Android, iOS, Linux, web, and Windows; listed languages include JavaScript, TypeScript, C, Java, Python, and Node.js. Scanbot says processing happens on-device and offline, usage statistics are not collected, and the SDK cannot access customer scans. Its annual license includes technical support, updates, and feature upgrades. Pricing is on request, generally starting at $2,500 a year for simple use cases, and depends on capture requirements and the number of apps or domains. A free 7-day evaluation trial is available, but its license is not for production apps.
