Data capture is the process of collecting information from physical or digital sources, such as scanned documents, forms, barcodes, or sensors, and converting it into a digital, usable format. Businesses use data capture technologies like optical character recognition (OCR) and intelligent document processing to automate tasks such as invoice processing and customer onboarding. It reduces manual data entry and speeds up downstream workflows.
