Industry: Fintech
Solution Type: AI-Powered Batch Cheque Processing
Technology: On-Premise / AI / ML
Project Overview
A leading fintech organization faced challenges in processing cheques manually due to long processing times and high error rates caused by complex, sequential data points. Manual extraction of data from cheques could take over 5 minutes per cheque, significantly slowing operations and increasing the risk of errors.
To address this, an AI-powered batch cheque processing solution was implemented to automate and streamline the workflow, handling cheques from multiple banks with varying formats.
Objectives
- Enable bulk processing of cheques for faster operational turnaround
- Ensure accuracy and reliability in extracting complex cheque data
- Support multiple cheque formats from different banks
- Reduce manual intervention and operational overhead
- Deliver faster processing times for high-volume cheque operations
