History
2025: Claim from Smart Engines for 5 million rubles on charges of illegal use of software
At the end of April 2025, it became known that the Russian developer of image recognition solutions Smart Engines filed a lawsuit against the management company Alfa-Capital. The plaintiff demands to recover from the defendant compensation in the amount of 5 million rubles for illegal use of software.
According to CNews, referring to information received from representatives of Smart Engines, the claims are related to the "unlicensed use" of the software developed by the company. In addition to monetary compensation, Smart Engines intends to seek a ban on the further unauthorized application of its decisions by the defendants.
What kind of software is in question in the lawsuit is not specified. In 2021, Alfa-Capital Management Company introduced Smart ID Engine technology developed by Smart Engines specialists to recognize the documents of users of its mobile application. The Smart ID Engine automatically extracts the data of the Russian passports provided by the client through the application and enters them into the fields of the registration form. It allows you to find and recognize a document regardless of the level of lighting, as well as the tilt of the camera of a smartphone or tablet. According to the company, using the Smart ID Engine technology, the Alfa-Capital application allows you to comfortably complete the registration stage for thousands of new customers of the company every month.
Vyacheslav Igumnov, patent attorney of the law firm Kosenkov and Suvorov, believes that the plaintiff's chances of success reach 70-80% if "there is evidence of violation and clear terms of the contract prohibiting the use of the software after its termination." In the absence of such evidence, the claim may be dismissed. In addition, there is a possibility of a decrease in the declared amount of compensation during the consideration of the case.[1]
