Lucca Transforms HR Expense Management with Mindee OCR

Before adopting Mindee’s OCR, Lucca faced two significant hurdles:

• Burdensome Data Entry: Employees had to manually fill in expense forms—even though receipts already contained most of the necessary information—resulting in a slow, error-prone process.

• Time-Consuming Verification: Administrators were required to cross-check manually entered data against receipts to prevent fraud and ensure compliance with local regulations during financial controls.

These challenges not only delayed expense reporting but also increased the risk of non-compliance and inefficiencies.

Lucca evaluated various OCR solutions, and Mindee quickly emerged as the clear frontrunner, thanks to its unmatched accuracy-to-speed ratio. 

Today, Mindee’s OCR technology is integrated into three of Lucca’s solutions—two powered by the Receipt API and one by the Invoice API.

While building a custom stack required some initial effort, Mindee’s APIs were implemented swiftly, and the benefits were immediately evident:

• Massive Document Processing:
  Lucca processes around 10 million documents per year. Even an estimated saving of 10 seconds per document results in significant time savings across the organization.
• Efficiency Gains:
  By automating data entry and verification, the time required to complete an expense form is effectively halved—allowing staff to focus on more strategic tasks.
• Competitive Advantage:
  When first integrated, Mindee’s OCR was a clear differentiator in a competitive market. Today, it remains one of Lucca’s top three “wow effects” during product demonstrations.
• Outstanding Support:
  Lucca praises Mindee’s responsive and expert support, which has been crucial in overcoming integration challenges and continuously improving the solution.
