What is receipt OCR?

Receipt OCR (Optical Character Recognition) is specialised software that automates the extraction of data from receipt images, converting it into a structured and meaningful format comprehensible to other software systems. Leveraging AI and machine learning, it intelligently identifies and parses key information, such as merchant name, date, individual line items, and totals, from varied layouts into a structured, machine-readable format like JSON.
