Manual data entry from ID cards is slow and error-prone. The ID Document OCR API classifies the document, reads its fields and returns them in a clean structure, together with a quality score so blurry or cropped uploads can be rejected up front.
It is designed to sit in front of the verification APIs: extract the PAN or Aadhaar from the image, then validate it at source with a second call on the same key.
Extract structured data from Aadhaar, PAN, passport, DL, voter ID and more.
Forms fill themselves from the document image.
Reject unreadable uploads before they reach a reviewer.
Extracted numbers flow into source checks with one more call.
Aadhaar, PAN, passport, driving licence, voter ID and more.
Where the ID Document OCR API is typically called, and what it settles there.

Flag documents whose printed data does not match declared data.
