We often improve this processing time and our target is below 500ms. Our goal is to make sure you can create real-time user experiences in your application.

Yes, the OCR was trained on a lot of receipts from a wide variety of layouts and image quality and learned to process the most complex ones.
We also use data augmentation to make sure that no blur or ink stains prevent the OCR from reading the data as long as it's readable.
Do you offer technical support?
We have a Slack community where you can ask your questions and chat with our team.
We don't do the integration in your infrastructure ourselves but we can set up a custom level of support on a per-case basis if needed.
