API Overview

One of Arya’s foremost products was for extraction and verification of cheques (CTS-2010 Standard). For any bank, Cheque clearing is a very important and highly resource intensive process. On any normal day, a leading bank can receive lakhs of cheques for clearance. Being an intricate process, it involves multiple levels of screening and vigilance to ensure regulatory guidelines are met. It was to overcome this challenge that we at Arya developed this product which includes multiple state of the art models to recognise and read handwritten amounts in words and figure, date, payee name, MICR, and account number. All these models work simultaneously to provide speedy results along with confidence scores to assess the performance of the models. While the complete product entails a lot more features, here we’ve simply exposed the API for the extraction process.
