Captiva Desktop is a new client for operators of input; it is easy to customize it for any types of problems of input, including the analysis of image quality, assembly of the document, high-speed input and indexing of data, high-speed correction and validation of data. Using support of templates of the forms repeating the image of the paper document, Captiva Desktop optimizes a working environment of the operator for acceleration of indexation on a context.

Captiva Advanced Recognition is used in case of presentation of more difficult requirements to solutions for corporate input. It includes the patented technology of text classification which considerably raises an accuracy figure of incoming documents.
