INDICIUS

INDICIUS™ is a powerful suite of modules that provide advanced document classification, separation and extraction capabilities, enabling the automated processing of more types of business documents.

Many businesses rely on information from paper documents, so the ability to extract that information into an automated business process brings the promise of driving business faster. Approximately 85% of the information used by an organization is in unstructured documents such as correspondence, but until recently, automatic processing was limited to documents with a fixed structure, such as forms. Whatever the structure, the information must be accurately and appropriately managed to enable successful business transactions and regulatory compliance.

Kofax's INDICIUS wins the AIIM Expo Best of Show Award for Document Imaging at AIIM 2005. This honor recognizes Enterprise Content Management (ECM) hardware and software technologies that demonstrate exceptional capabilities and quality, and show evidence of significant ROI (return on investment) potential.

Save costs on document sorting and processing

For organizations that scan and capture their documents, appropriate handling used to mean spending considerable time and money sorting those documents prior to scanning, adding document separation (patch code) sheets, and manually classifying the documents prior to data extraction.

INDICIUS has now eliminated this costly process, enabling businesses to automatically process documents that have little or no structure. INDICIUS is a powerful suite of capture modules that provide advanced document classification, separation and extraction capabilities. INDICIUS automatically extracts hand-written and printed data from scanned document images, removing the need for costly and time-consuming manual keying. INDICIUS can use the extracted data to classify the document and route it to a workflow queue, to index the document for storage in a document management system, or to initiate a business process or transaction.

An organization can use INDICIUS to process both fixed and free-form documents including application forms, claims, correspondence, reports and virtually any other document type.

INDICIUS modules support and extend Ascent Capture, the world’s most popular information capture platform. This makes INDICIUS the ideal upgrade whenever advanced transformation functionality is required.
