New product alert! LEADTOOLS now has a completely new way to add its world-leading OCR, barcode, MICR, and document conversion into your app. Introducing LEADTOOLS Cloud Services, a high-powered, scalable, and lightweight Web API for adding advanced LEADTOOLS recognition and document conversion technologies into their applications.

As cloud hosting services like Microsoft Azure, Amazon AWS, and Google Cloud gain popularity, applications can be developed in new and exciting ways. LEADTOOLS Cloud Services dives into the hosted cloud processing world by providing its most popular technologies via a consumption-based pricing model. This new product is a programmer-friendly addition to any desktop, mobile, or web application with an Internet connection. This opens the door to many popular languages such as PHP, Python, and Perl, in addition to C# and JavaScript, which LEADTOOLS already supports in its existing SDK product line.

Everybody has a smartphone in their pocket. With today's technology there is no reason to carry around a smartphone, business card scanner and a receipt scanner; just use the camera on your phone!

Scan Anything, Anywhere, Any Time
Scan anything, anywhere, any time. That is the dream for many people, and today's technology is making that a reality. Using a camera such as those on smartphones to capture information provides flexibility and can do things that a traditional scanner cannot. With the right image processing tools, a camera can capture receipts, documents, business cards, whiteboards, large format drawings, periodical pages and of course snapshots of business associates and friends with extremely high quality.

Today, we published a new video that highlights some of the LEADTOOLS OCR SDK features that set it apart from the competition. Thousands of developers rely on the LEADTOOLS OCR SDK to create enterprise-level OCR, forms processing, MICR, and OMR solutions. Watch the LEADTOOLS OCR SDK features video to see why.

We hope you enjoy the video. If there are any specific LEADTOOLS features you want to see highlighted on our YouTube channel, please let us know!
