Identifying Challenges in Document Digitization and Management

The client faces difficulties with efficiently scanning, converting, storing, and managing a variety of physical documents and images. Existing solutions lack comprehensive features such as multi-format export, advanced markup, watermarks, e-signatures, OCR-enabled text extraction and translation, and batch processing capabilities, leading to inefficiencies and limited user functionality.

About the Client

A mid-sized enterprise specializing in digital solutions for enterprise document management, requiring a feature-rich scanning and document processing mobile app.

Primary Goals for Enhanced Document Management platform

  • Develop an intuitive mobile application capable of scanning and converting documents and images into PDF or image formats with high quality.
  • Enable local storage and organized management of scanned documents with folder creation and easy retrieval.
  • Integrate seamless sharing and export options including cloud storage services (e.g., iCloud, Google Drive, Dropbox, Box) and email.
  • Incorporate features for adding customizable watermarks, watermarks, and digital signatures to documents for authentication and branding.
  • Implement OCR technology to extract and translate text from scanned documents into over 18 languages.
  • Provide advanced editing capabilities including cropping, cropping, rotation, contrast, brightness adjustments, filters, and markup tools with multiple colors and undo/redo options.
  • Include a secure access feature with PIN lock to protect sensitive documents.
  • Offer batch scanning functionality for processing multiple documents simultaneously under a paid subscription model.
  • Support multiple paper sizes for printing and flexible document adjustments prior to printing.

Core Functional Specifications for Document Scanner Application

  • Image and document capture via camera or gallery with auto/manual capture modes.
  • Conversion to PDF and JPG formats with high resolution quality.
  • Local document storage with organization via user-defined folders.
  • Export options to cloud services (iCloud, Google Drive, Dropbox, Box) and email sharing.
  • Document printing with adjustable paper sizes (Letter, A3, A4, A5, Business Cards, Legal).
  • Markup tools including text highlights, watermarks, digital signatures with customization options.
  • OCR functionality for text extraction with multi-language support (18+ languages).
  • Translation of extracted text using cloud OCR services.
  • Image and document editing features such as cropping, rotation, contrast, brightness adjustments, filters.
  • Security features like PIN lock to restrict app access.
  • Batch scanning for multiple documents with drag and drop support (paid feature).

Preferred Technology Stack and Architecture for App Development

Swift programming language for iOS development
Xcode IDE
Core Data for local storage
Cloud OCR services (e.g., Google Firebase ML Kit)
External libraries for PDF markup, signatures, and image editing

  • Cloud storage services (iCloud, Google Drive, Dropbox, Box) for exporting documents
  • Email clients for sharing directly from the app
  • Printer services compatible with adjustable paper sizes
  • OCR and translation services for text extraction and multi-language translation

Performance, Security, and Reliability Specifications

  • App should perform high-quality scanning with minimal latency, aiming for rapid capture and processing.
  • Secure storage with PIN protection to prevent unauthorized access.
  • Scalability to handle an increasing number of users and documents without performance degradation.
  • Data privacy compliance, especially regarding OCR and cloud storage integrations.
  • High availability with 99.9% uptime for cloud-connected features and services.

Business Impact and Expected Benefits of the Document Scanner Solution

This project is expected to drastically improve efficiency in document digitization and management processes, enabling users to seamlessly scan, annotate, secure, and share documents. The inclusion of OCR and translation features will expand the application's utility across multilingual environments. Anticipated benefits include reduced processing time, enhanced document security, improved user productivity, and an enlarged customer base through feature-rich offerings.
