Digitech Systems announces the launch of PaperVision Forms Magic technology (the FM technology), which introduces accurate document recognition and classification along with data extraction. Known for improving efficiency, tight information control and lower cost Enterprise Content Management (ECM), Digitech Systems understands that information is at the heart of business processes, and these new capabilities make it even easier to organize and utilize important business data. The FM technology is available as a component of PaperVision Capture, the company’s scanning and indexing software.
Despite efforts to “go digital” or to become a “paperless office,” many organizations are still struggling with a glut of paper-based information. When combined with information that was born digital but is scattered across a variety of applications and desktops throughout the business, information management can feel overwhelming. Often, the hardest part is getting started, because the variety of document types and data can be significant. What if you didn’t have to sort or organize your records in advance?
One of the First Practical Applications of Machine Learning
The FM technology is one of the first practical applications of machine learning for business users. Machine learning describes a category of artificial intelligence in which software algorithms learn from large data sets without relying on the more traditional conventions of rules-based development. This allows the computer to explore an exponential number of options before selecting the right answer. For example, IBM’s Watson machine used self-generated scores in selecting potential answers to rout competitors on the popular game show Jeopardy! in 2011.
Digitech Systems is the first company to bring machine learning to document management users and the ECM industry. What is the benefit? Rather than lengthy configuration and setup processes that involve software developers manually importing documents into a forms processing application and telling the system what each document is—or worse, sorting documents by hand and typing identifying index terms manually—Forms Magic learns by ingesting documents and develops its own patterns for classification making it faster and easier to setup than outdated forms processing technologies. In addition, by relying on many more data points than other forms processing options when making classification decisions, the FM technology also offers dramatically more accurate results.

Beta customers of the technology have averaged classification accuracy above 90%, resulting in less time spent manually reviewing and resorting documents.
Benefits of PaperVision® Forms Magic:
- Convert vulnerable paper records into electronic files that are protected by user login, encryption, and multiple layers of system security.
- Extract critical data from both paper documents and electronic files to populate the index terms used to locate the document or to send to other business applications reducing manual data entry and saving time and money.
- Improve the accessibility of information by ensuring documents get classified appropriately, and thus can be located more quickly when needed.
- Implement quickly, because the FM technology does not require complex configuration or custom code.
