OCR for eDiscovery

OCR for eDiscovery minimizes the need for manual document review in legal cases. Attorneys and litigation teams handle massive volumes of paper records and static electronic files, which often exist as scanned images or non-searchable PDFs that are inefficient to retrieve.

Without OCR, legal professionals must manually sift through unstructured files, leading to:

  • High labor costs for attorneys and litigation support specialists
  • Wasted time on non-billable, repetitive tasks
  • Increased risk of errors, duplication, and missed information
  • Lost or misplaced documents, which can result in compliance issues or legal penalties

OCR software automates eDiscovery by converting scanned documents and image-based text files (TIFF, PDF, JPEG) into fully searchable and indexed content.

This server-based solution integrates with Microsoft and Google enterprise search systems, enabling attorneys and litigation support teams to locate critical information instantly. OCR also supports compliance by timestamping converted files for auditability.
