Anyline nabs $20M to automate mobile data capture for enterprises

#artificialintelligence

Where does your enterprise stand on the AI adoption curve? Take our AI survey to find out. Anyline, a company that builds mobile data capture and scanning technologies for multiple industries, has raised $20 million. Founded out of Vienna, Austria, in 2013, Anyline has developed a range of data capture products such as barcode scanning, optical character recognition (OCR)-powered document scanning, biometric face authentication, serial number scanning, and even driving licensing scanning which enables retailers to easily verify a person's age and identity at the point-of-sale or curbside pickup. Elsewhere, police forces can integrate Anyline's technology to scan all manner of IDs and vehicle license plates to verify drivers instantly, which not only speeds things up but also reduces the chances of errors through traditional manual processes such as typing or broadcasting data across radio. This, according to Anyline CEO and cofounder Lukas Kinigadner, is perhaps the number one benefit Anyline brings to organizations across the spectrum.
