The Origins of Advanced OCR Technology
ABBYY is a global technology company providing document processing solutions. Founded by David Yang, born in Yerevan,
the same location where EasyData also has an office and actively develops AI applications.
ABBYY was founded in 1989 by a group of linguists and engineers. In the early nineties, the company conducted research into data capture, linguistic analysis and text recognition. OCR technology research was funded by revenue from Lingvo, an advanced electronic dictionary that was extremely popular in the 1990s.
ABBYY Lingvo Legacy
EasyData supported Lingvo license sales until 2015, demonstrating how long Lingvo maintained its competitive advantage over free online translation services. Today the market has evolved and even Online OCR services are easily accessible to everyone.
ABBYY FineReader Evolution
Lingvo was something special, and with the launch of FineReader, expectations within the technical user community were high. In the nineties, optical character recognition (OCR) for recognizing text on scanned documents was still in its infancy.
FineReader was the first product that could truly convert scanned text to a Word document without many errors.
FineReader now ranks among the most popular OCR products on the market. With more than 100 million users, the company has proven to make text recognition accessible to everyone. ABBYY’s ambition to develop accurate, reliable and user-friendly OCR software has succeeded.
EasyData’s Role in ABBYY Evolution
EasyData delivered its first FineReader runtime in an OCR text recognition product in 1999. This was designed for Océ, then an independent Dutch manufacturer of multifunction / all-in-one printers. After this successful start, EasyData sold custom solutions in a standard package to many more MFP suppliers.
First FineReader Integration
Delivered first FineReader runtime for Océ, marking the beginning of our long-term partnership with ABBYY technology.
EasySeparate Development
That custom solution in a standard package was EasySeparate. EasyData still develops this product today, and the video at this link shows the development history.
FlexiCapture Integration
With ABBYY’s developments around FlexiCapture, FlexiCapture technology eventually made its way into EasySeparate. EasyData achieved successful integrations including invoice recognition.
AI and Machine Learning Focus
We’ve transitioned from FlexiTemplate technology to more focus on Machine Learning technology, supporting modern ABBYY Vantage implementations.
