What are the benefits of intelligent document processing (IDP)?

  • Automates data extraction from both structured and unstructured documents, even handwritten documents, reducing manual entry. 
  • Improves accuracy by minimizing human error through AI-powered tools like Revver’s OCR and Smart Extract AI. 
  • Enhances efficiency by streamlining workflows, reducing processing time, and speeding up approvals. 
  • Improves compliance with built-in security features and audit trails for document tracking and ensuring consistent processes are followed. 
  • Reduces costs by automating repetitive tasks and eliminating the need for manual data handling.


How does Revver’s Smart Extract AI work?

Revver’s Smart Extract AI uses AI to automatically identify and pull relevant data from a variety of documents. It allows you to specify what metadata you care about for different file types or folders, increasing the accuracy and efficiency of data extraction.

What is Zonal OCR and how does it benefit document processing?

Zonal Optical Character Recognition (OCR) is a desktop application that targets specific areas of structured documents, like forms or invoices, to extract data from defined zones. This ensures key information, such as dates or amounts, is accurately captured and processed, streamlining workflows and minimizing errors. It can also perform other document tasks, like separating different documents in the same file.


Can Revver process unstructured documents like scanned PDFs and images?

Yes, Revver can process both unstructured and structured documents. It uses advanced OCR and AI technologies to extract valuable data from scanned PDFs, images, and handwritten content, making it easier to manage and analyze your documents.


How secure is the data processed by Revver?

Revver follows industry-standard security protocols to protect your data at every stage. All documents and metadata are encrypted, and access is tightly managed through robust permission controls to ensure privacy and compliance. 

You’re always in control—AI features like Smart Extract AI are optional and can be turned on or off at any time. Your data is never used to train models for other customers, and insights from your documents remain entirely private and secure.

WHY TEAMS SWITCH

WHAT TAKES DOCUWARE MONTHS TAKES REVVER WEEKS. HERE'S WHY. 

DocuWare has been building since 1988, originally for on-premise only. Its metadata architecture and user interface still reflect the era they were designed in.

DocuWare's enterprise workflow tools are complex and demand specialized IT resources to make them work. Revver's no-code builder is made for the operational teams who own the documents.

CONFIGURED BY YOU, NOT IT TEAMS

DocuWare pricing is quote-based and varies with workflows, integrations, and storage. Revver publishes its tiers, has no account minimums, and supports mix-and-match licensing. 

PRICING YOU CAN PLAN AROUND

DocuWare support is often delivered through implementation partners and enterprise channels. Revver support is direct and U.S.-based, from experts who know the software inside and out. 

SUPPORT YOU REACH DIRECTLY

It usually starts that way. But a trial doesn't need a purchase order, a migration plan, or a meeting. Load a folder of your own documents, build one workflow, and bring IT the result instead of the request. 

That conversation goes differently.

IS REVVER A GOOD ALTERNATIVE TO DOCUWARE? 

Yes, especially for small and medium-sized businesses. Revver is frequently evaluated by organizations seeking a cloud-based document management system that combines AI-powered document intelligence, workflow automation, client collaboration, and ease of use, without the complexity often associated with enterprise document processing systems. 


WHAT IS THE MAIN DIFFERENCE BETWEEN REVVER AND DOCUWARE?

Their focus on usability versus enterprise structure. Both offer document security and access control, audit trails, digital signatures, metadata structures, regulatory compliance, and version control. Revver makes it easy to set up workflows without rigid templates. DocuWare is often chosen for structured enterprise document processing and heavily customized environments. 


WHICH PLATFORM IS EASIER TO IMPLEMENT?

Revver, by far. Implementations are typically measured in weeks rather than months because of the no-code workflow builder and user-focused design. DocuWare deployments are longer because they involve more extensive process mapping and customization, requiring in-depth IT involvement. 


HOW DO REVVER AND DOCUWARE COMPARE ON AI? 

Both offer AI-powered document processing, but they focus on different outcomes. Revver's Smart Extract AI, Smart Summary, and Smart Hints make documents searchable and workflow-ready. DocuWare emphasizes IDP and structured document extraction for enterprise workflows. Revver reads handwriting, not just printed text, and Smart Hints improves extraction accuracy using business-specific context. 


HOW DOES PRICING COMPARE?

Revver offers transparent pricing and flexible licensing, including mix-and-match tiers and no account minimums. Guest users let outside parties view files and upload documents without paying for extra users. DocuWare pricing is typically quote-based and varies significantly depending on workflows, integrations, storage requirements, and deployment complexity.
