Customization OCR API
In certain cases the standard solutions of Klippa might not be sufficient to fulfill your needs. We therefore offer the possibility to build custom OCR integrations via our API. The input is normally a stream of documents in images or PDF format. The output is JSON (or a different type of structured data), including the extracted information per receipt, invoice, contract, passport, sales order, shipping document, packing slip or any other document you can think of. From these documents we extract information such as the name, address, date, chamber of commerce reference, invoice number, bank account number, total amount, VAT, date of birth and place of birth.
What is the price of a custom OCR API?
At Klippa we believe in adding value to our clients for a fair price. Our customization process always starts with identifying your needs during a first meeting. Based on your requirements we will prepare an offer. The offer normally includes a one-off setup fee (depending on the complexity of the documents that need to be processed) and a yearly license fee in line with our pricing at this page.

Out of the box our OCR API supports languages like Dutch, English, French, Spanish, German, Portuguese, Italian, Danish, Swedish, Finnish and Greek. Hebrew is currently in BETA. Other languages can be supported on request.
Is there any API documentation?
Definitely! We know how important good documentation is. Therefore we have open API documentation that is automatically kept up to date using SWAGGER.
Is it possible to test the API?
Seeing is believing, we know all about it. We love to show our product and also like giving business and technical support. For Klippa to invest time, we also ask some commitment from the customer side. Therefore we offer testing from our OCR API via POC contracts. Reach out to us to learn more and get your API key. You will get all the testing time and credits you need.
How do I get an API key?
At Klippa we like a personal approach. We usually start with a small conversation to learn more about your use case. Following on that we give online demonstrations via screen sharing. After the demo you will be able to start testing with your very own API Key.
How does the OCR API pricing work?
Our pricing model is based on either a monthly license or a pay per document (high volume) fee. Depending on your requirements and volume, our solution architects will make you a custom pricing offer. Payments are done monthly up front for the licenses or after each month for pay per use contracts.
What does the API response look like?
The default response contains structured JSON. To learn more about the exact structure, read our API documentation. This allows fast processing of the extracted data. On request the JSON structure can be changed for your API key.
