The world of open source software has matured, and there are several offerings that help make paper and offline contents searchable with speed and accuracy.

Suggested workflow

  1. Digitize contents into scanned documents
  2. Run OCR to extract text
  3. Index the contents
  4. Provide a searchable interface
  5. Apply additional processing as needed

Common features now include automated processing, annotations, analytics, and alert generation. The approach supports multiple Indian languages and can benefit industries such as:

  • Government
  • Finance and taxation
  • Land records
  • Legal domain
  • Human resources

We can provide consulting and services for these digitization efforts.
