Captiva Enhances Its Dispatcher Software with Improved Classification and Extraction Capabilities; New 4.0 Version Creates a ``D
Captiva Software Corporation (NASDAQ:CPTV), a leading provider of input management solutions, today announced the availability of Dispatcher(TM) 4.0, a new, more powerful version of its document classification and extraction software.
Dispatcher includes the ability to identify and separate structured, unstructured and handwritten documents, and automatically route them to the appropriate person or department within the enterprise for optimized processing. Dispatcher 4.0 now identifies documents and extracts business critical data by creating a "digital finger print" that combines text analysis and dynamic field positioning information to better analyze both the content and structure of each document. The digital finger print then enables Dispatcher 4.0 to identify a document type, search for areas containing data to be extracted and determine what type of data to extract -- faster than previously possible and with almost no user intervention.
The new version of Dispatcher also features the ability to detect and extract data from tables in a document, making it especially valuable for processing documents such as invoices and explanation-of-benefits (EOB) forms. Dispatcher 4.0 introduces a sophisticated mechanism for analyzing multiple-line invoice items and automatically manages page breaks when a line item continues to a consecutive page of the same invoice.
"The latest version of Dispatcher allows users to automatically recognize and classify just about any document type or format," said Jim Vickers, Captiva's Chief Marketing Officer. "The combination of technologies in Dispatcher 4.0 is unique in the market, enabling it to identify and extract business data from the full range of documents that enterprises typically receive."
The new 4.0 version of Dispatcher is also fully integrated with InputAccel, Captiva's award-winning document capture software, combining innovative classification and extraction features with the industry-leading scalability and robustness offered by InputAccel.
Dispatcher enables customers to streamline document capture and forms processing by automatically sorting and indexing all types of documents at high speeds. The Dispatcher technology improves the speed and accuracy of forms processing and data capture, while relieving users from the burden of pre-sorting documents prior to scanning.
