We benchmark leading OCR solutions, LLMs and intelligent document processing (IDP) platforms for accuracy and efficiency in document automation.
Explore Document Automation Benchmarks: OCR & Document Processing
State of OCR technology in 2026: Is it dead or a solved problem?
Optical Character Recognition (OCR) is one of the earliest areas of artificial intelligence research. Today, OCR is a relatively mature technology, and it is no longer called AI, which is a good example of Pulitzer Prize winner Douglas Hofstadter’s quote: AI is whatever hasn’t been done yet.
OCR Benchmark: Text Extraction / Capture Accuracy
OCR accuracy is critical for many document processing tasks, and SOTA multi-modal LLMs are now offering an alternative to OCR.
Receipt OCR Benchmark with LLMs in 2026
Extracting data from receipts is essential for businesses, as millions of employees submit their work-related expenses via receipts. With the latest developments in generative AI and large language models, data extraction accuracy has reached a level comparable to that of humans.
Invoice OCR Benchmark: Extraction Accuracy of LLMs vs OCRs
Invoice processing is a critical yet labor-intensive business operation that traditionally requires manual data extraction and entry into accounting systems. This manual approach is time-consuming and susceptible to human error.
Handwriting Recognition Benchmark: LLMs vs OCRs
OCR tools achieve over 99% accuracy on typed text in high-quality images. However, handwriting remains challenging due to variations in style, spacing, and irregularities. We introduce a cursive handwriting benchmark with 100 handwriting samples written by our team to prevent overfitting.
Agentic Document Extraction: LandingAI & more in 2026
Agentic Document Extraction (ADE) is a specialized form of Optical Character Recognition (OCR) that extracts data from various file types. It combines document processing, data retrieval, structured output generation, and automation to streamline knowledge work. ADE stands out from traditional OCR by its ability to recognize complex document structures, such as tables, flowcharts, and images.
14 Rossum AI Alternatives / Competitors in 2026
Document processing is crucial in many industries such as finance automation and accounts payable. Alongside accounts payable AI (APAI) solutions, AI-driven Intelligent Document Processing (IDP) vendors such as Rossum capture attention. In this vibrant market, AP AI market spending is projected to surge to $1.9 billion by the end of 2025.
Top 10 Tungsten Automation (Kofax) Alternatives in 2026
With the acceleration of artificial intelligence (AI), businesses are constantly looking for tools to: Intelligent document processing (IDP) tools can do all this, and more. For this reason, the global Intelligent Document Processing (IDC) market sizeis expected to grow from USD 1.1 billion in 2022 to USD 5.
