Scanned Invoices and Photos Are Hard to Process

Many invoices arrive as scans, photos, or faxes. Basic OCR produces garbage text, and you still need to structure the extracted data.

Basic OCR produces raw text without any structure
Skewed or rotated documents cause extraction failures
Low-resolution scans and photos reduce accuracy
Handwritten notes and stamps confuse traditional OCR
