How does automated currency extraction work?

Below is an example of the three steps our OCR software follows to automatically extract currencies from documents and images.

Step 1 : Upload a document or image to the API

The first step is to provide an image or PDF file of a document containing a currency to our API. Usually this is done from a mobile app, email, FTP, or web application. 

The document can be sent both cropped (without background) and uncropped (with background). If the image is sent uncropped, our API automatically crops it to the right size.

Step 2 : Image to text with OCR

As soon as an image or PDF with a currency has been submitted, it is converted to a TXT file. In this step, all text from the document is extracted, but not yet structured.

Next to currencies, a variety of data can be extracted, such as: 

• Total amounts
• VAT amounts
• Line items
• Prices
• Invoice numbers
• Payment due dates

Step 3: JSON output from the API

The Klippa parser takes the TXT gained in step 2, and converts it into structured JSON by using machine learning. The JSON is returned as output from the API. The currency on the document is now extracted.

Now, the field can easily be processed into your database. Whether you are processing currencies for international business transactions, or accounting practices, Klippa is here to help you. 

The image on the left is a simplified example of the JSON response.
