MOBILE DOCUMENT SCANNING · FOR EVERY TEAM

Mobile document capture, 100% on the device.

Edge detection, capture, crop and compression for iOS, Android, Flutter and React Native, all processed on the device. Nothing is uploaded, so scans stay private, keep working offline, and move less data across the network. Production-grade capture priced so any team can ship it, startups, integrators, enterprises, and individuals alike.

WHY TEAMS USE IT

The economics of capturing documents the right way

Every scan you ingest costs your team money, storage, backup, bandwidth, processing, archive. A smarter capture pipeline cuts that bill in proportion.

Up to 90% smaller files

Intelligent compression at the point of capture. Storage, backup, and bandwidth costs drop in direct proportion. The savings compound over millions of documents.

50%+ infrastructure savings

Smaller files mean fewer servers, smaller storage tiers, faster downstream pipelines. Teams typically cut document-handling infrastructure by half.

No perceptible quality loss

High-quality output preserved. OCR accuracy, archival readability, and visual fidelity stay intact, even at maximum compression.

Layout-preserving conversion

DPI control and page-layout configuration on every export. Multi-page TIFF and PDF outputs that stay compliant with your archive and regulator standards.

Input validation + standardisation

Auto-detects input formats, validates them, and standardises everything to a single canonical output before it ever reaches your storage tier.

AI-assisted capture

Auto-crop, perspective correction, auto-rotation, lighting/focus/blur control. The user gets a usable scan on the first try, no retakes, no support tickets.

Absolute technologies, for every team

Because capture, crop and compression run on the device, less data crosses the network and less lands in your storage tier, the same optimisation that saves time and space is what makes the SDK greener and lower-cost to run, with no drop in output quality. That efficiency is why production-grade scanning here is affordable to a solo developer or a system integrator, not just an enterprise. Affordable to all.

CAPABILITIES

What the SDK gives you

Capture

Auto and assisted capture modes. Real-time edge detection, perspective & angle correction, deskew and crop, lighting/focus/blur control, auto-rotation, every document scan cleaned up on-device.

Compression

Intelligent format-aware compression. Up to 90% file-size reduction with no perceptible quality loss. Configurable compression profiles per use case.

Output formats

PDF, multi-page TIFF, JPEG. Configurable DPI per export. Layout-preserving on every format. Watermark-free output across all paid tiers.

Validation

Input format detection. Validation against expected document types. Standardise everything to a canonical output before storage.

Fraud signals (Plus)

Device Guard Engine for anti-tamper and anti-fraud. Device Information Capture. Location + DIGIPIN generation for evidentiary workflows.

ID extraction (addon)

Region-specific templates, Aadhaar, PAN, Voter ID, Emirates ID, Iqama, BVN, NIN, KRA. Available as an addon on the Plus tier.

Face match & detection (Plus)

Detect faces in a captured document and match a selfie to the ID photo on-device, with a 0–100% confidence score and reliability bands, purpose-built for KYC and onboarding.

Need QR or barcode reading too? That's a separate on-device module, see mobile QR code scanning.

USE CASES

Where developers ship Abscode SDK

FINTECH KYC

CKYC onboarding flow

Aadhaar + PAN capture → server-side extraction. CKYC 2.0-ready. Device Guard catches fraud at capture, before the data ever hits your servers.

INSURANCE

Mobile claim capture

Medical bills, prescriptions and ID documents scanned by phone. Auto-cropped, deskewed and compressed on-device before upload.

LOGISTICS

Proof of delivery

Scan signed PoD, capture location + DIGIPIN, upload to fleet system. Offline-capable. Small files keep field-app data usage down.

EXPENSE

Receipt scan in T&E app

Snap receipt → multi-page PDF → expense report. Auto-rotate, auto-crop, auto-enhance. Cleaner receipts go through faster downstream.

RETAIL

Vendor invoice capture

Scan supplier invoices and delivery challans on a store phone. Auto-crop, deskew and compress before syncing to head office.

GOVT

Citizen document intake

Capture application forms and supporting ID documents on-device, deskewed, compressed and standardised for state-level workflows.

WHY ABSCODE SCANNING SDK

Built around how documents actually flow through your stack

Most scanning SDKs treat capture as an isolated event. Abscode treats it as the first step in a pipeline that ends in storage, OCR, and downstream review, and tunes every default to make that pipeline leaner and more reliable.

Capture that's pipeline-aware

DPI, page layout, format, and compression configured per use case, so the file that enters your storage tier is already the right shape for OCR, archival, and review downstream.

Fraud signals at capture

Device Guard, Device Info, Location + DIGIPIN, the evidentiary metadata your fraud and compliance teams ask for, generated client-side before upload.

Regional ID coverage

Optional ID Extraction addon with templates for Aadhaar, PAN, Voter ID, Emirates ID, Iqama, BVN, NIN, KRA, coverage that global vendors leave on the to-do list.

FAQ

Common questions

Which platforms does the mobile document scanning SDK support?
The SDK ships to iOS, Android, Flutter and React Native from one codebase. Native builds cover Swift and Objective-C on iOS and Kotlin and Java on Android, with matching bindings for Flutter and React Native, so a single integration serves every app you maintain.
Does the document scanning SDK work offline and fully on-device?
Yes. Capture, edge detection, crop and compression all run on the device, with nothing uploaded to a server. Scans stay private, keep working with no network connection, and move far less data across the wire.
What file formats can the SDK export scanned documents to?
Scans export to PDF, multi-page TIFF and JPEG. DPI is configurable per export and page layout is preserved, so archival TIFF and PDF stay compliant with your storage and regulator standards. Output is watermark-free on every paid tier.
How does the SDK clean up and correct scans automatically?
Each page is corrected at the moment of capture. Real-time edge detection, perspective and angle correction, deskew, auto-rotation and lighting, focus and blur control produce a straightened, readable scan on the first try. Auto and assisted capture modes let the camera fire when the frame is steady or on a manual shutter.
How much can on-device compression shrink a scanned document?
On-device compression reduces file size by up to 90% with no perceptible loss in quality. Storage, backup and bandwidth costs fall in direct proportion, while OCR accuracy and archival readability stay intact. The savings compound across millions of documents.
Can the same SDK also scan QR codes and barcodes?
Reading QR codes and barcodes is a separate on-device module, not part of document scanning. See mobile QR code scanning and mobile barcode scanning, both of which decode live from the camera without a network connection.
How is the mobile scanning SDK licensed and priced?
The SDK is licensed annually as a single-platform or multi-platform license, with zero scan limits at every tier. Starter begins at $290 per year and covers core capture, edge detection, crop and PDF export; Plus adds unlimited pages, multi-page TIFF and advanced fraud signals. See the pricing page for the full comparison.
What extra capabilities does the Plus tier add?
The Plus tier is license-gated and adds a Device Guard anti-fraud engine, device information capture, and verified location with DigiPin for evidentiary workflows. It also unlocks on-device face detection and selfie-to-ID face match for KYC, plus an optional regional ID extraction addon covering documents such as Aadhaar, PAN, Emirates ID and more.
