2022H2 Amazon Textract launch summary

Documents are a primary tool for record keeping, communication, collaboration, and transactions across many industries, including financial, medical, legal, and real estate. The millions of mortgage applications and hundreds of millions of W2 tax forms processed each year are just a few examples of such documents. Critical business data remains unlocked in unstructured documents such as scanned images and PDFs, and trying to get humans to read this data or even legacy OCR is tedious, expensive, and error prone. This is why we launched Amazon Textract in 2019 to help you automate your tedious document processing workflows powered by AI. Amazon Textract automatically extracts printed text, handwriting, and data from any document.
