SmartImage Leap

Your documents already know the answers.

Leap reads them: emails, scans, handwriting, tables and contracts, and turns them into data your systems can act on.

The product

What it does

Leap is the intelligent document processing product of the SmartImage suite, in production at banks, bureaus and government departments. It captures documents from every source, scanners, email inboxes, folders and APIs, understands what each one is, extracts the data that matters and hands it to your systems, with your people confirming only where judgement is needed.

Reads every source

Batch scanning handles the paper; mailroom automation watches your inboxes. Scanners, email, folders and APIs, all captured without manual handling.

Extracts what matters

Handwriting, tables, resumes and contracts: the fields that matter are identified, extracted and structured, ready for use.

Fits your systems

A full REST API and a decoupled architecture put Leap inside your workflows and interfaces, not the other way round.

How it works

From any source to any system

Every document Leap touches follows the same four steps, whether it arrives in an inbox, on a scanner or through the API. People stay in the loop exactly where their judgement adds value.

01
Capture any document

Collected from email inboxes, scanners, folders, APIs and repositories, then prepared for processing.

02
AI understands and extracts

Document types identified and key information extracted with OCR, machine learning and rules.

03
Validate with confidence

People review and confirm classifications and data where needed, before information moves forward.

04
Act and integrate

Structured documents and data delivered into Conserve, ERP, HR and finance systems for immediate use.

Capabilities

What Leap does

Mailroom automation

Reads your inboxes automatically, and per-mailbox rules decide what happens next: reroute, split, process or file, each document to its own destination.

Handwriting recognition

Handwritten forms and annotations extracted accurately, powered by SmartImage Cloud, for the documents OCR alone cannot read.

Table extraction and verification

Line items lifted intact from invoices and financial statements, verified before they reach your ledgers.

Resume and contract extraction

Purpose-built extraction that identifies and structures the critical fields in CVs, contracts and tenders.

Built for volume and control

Bulk processing, parallel workflows, area-based permissions and reporting, with a modern interface your teams learn quickly.

Open by design

A comprehensive REST API and fully decoupled frontend: build your own screens, embed Leap in your portals, integrate with any enterprise platform.

Strongest fits: Finance · Recruitment and HR · Legal · and any operation buried in high-volume, handwriting- or image-heavy capture

80 million

Vehicle-registration documents scanned and processed for a national government department in East Africa. And at a South African scanning bureau, invoices, credit notes and debit notes once needed 26 people to download, classify and capture within a 24-hour SLA; Leap’s mailroom automation now reads the inboxes and extracts the data itself, and today 2 people validate the exceptions.
