Kofax has announced the availability of a Mobile Capture Platform, which it says dramatically transforms how businesses can extend capture capabilities to their mobile customers. 

The new Kofax Mobile Capture Platform enables organisations to rapidly develop and deploy any number of mobile apps on a single platform that uses Kofax’s image capture and realtime data extraction and validation and analytics capabilities. 

Data contained within captured documents can be automatically extracted, validated and submitted for downstream processing, eliminating the need for tedious manual entry. In addition, the platform’s analytics improve an organisation’s customer knowledge.

Drew Hyatt, Senior Vice President of Mobile Applications at Kofax, stated, “Prior to the launch of the Kofax Mobile Capture Platform, banks and insurance organisations had limited options for mobility and were investing in unique, proprietary solutions for each individual use case while relying upon the related vendor to maintain and enhance those apps. By empowering businesses with tools that allow them to drive their own mobile development on a single platform, Kofax has blown away the early market limitations, opening up a world of new opportunities in mobile. 

“Kofax’s perpetual license pricing model also is more cost effective than the per-click pricing prevalent before today.”

Kofax also is launching easily customizable frameworks for two apps built on the Kofax Mobile Capture Platform:

1. Kofax Mobile Bill Pay, with patented image perfection, enables banks and their customers to easily and effectively capture bills and add payees to a bank’s automatic bill pay system. 
2. Kofax Mobile Cheque Deposit gives banking customers the ability to deposit cheques directly from their smartphones and tablets
