This process reduces errors associated with manual entry and accelerates expense processing, saving you valuable time.

Benefit 2. Centralized Management of Image Data

OCR technology can read text from images and automatically upload it to cloud storage, allowing you to organize and manage data more efficiently. For example, you can capture a product label’s image and upload it to a form. AI will automatically extract the relevant details, saving them to Google Sheets, allowing for better management of product data. This creates a centralized database, simplifying searches and providing easier access to important information.

Benefit 3. Speeding Up Customer Response

AI OCR can also read handwritten customer orders and convert them into text, which is then entered into Google Sheets. For example, AI can automatically read a handwritten order form, extract the relevant details, and notify you via Slack or Gmail. This enables a faster response to customer inquiries, potentially boosting satisfaction and improving service delivery.
