Document Intelligence credit card model

This content applies to: checkmark v4.0 (preview) checkmark

The Document Intelligence credit/debit card model uses powerful Optical Character Recognition (OCR) capabilities to analyze and extract key fields from credit and debit cards. Credit cards and debit cards can be of various formats and quality including phone-captured images, scanned documents, and digital PDFs. The API analyzes document text; extracts key information such as Card Number, Issuing Bank, and Expiration Date; and returns a structured JSON data representation. The model currently supports English-language document formats.

Automated card processing

Automated Credit/Debit card processing is the process of extracting key fields from bank cards. Historically, bank card analysis process is achieved manually and, hence, very time consuming. Accurate extraction of key data from bank cards s is typically the first and one of the most critical steps in the contract automation process.

  • For best results, provide one clear photo or high-quality scan per document.

  • For PDF and TIFF, up to 2,000 pages can be processed (with a free tier subscription, only the first two pages are processed).

  • The file size for analyzing documents is 500 MB for paid (S0) tier and 4 MB for free (F0) tier.

  • Image dimensions must be between 50 pixels x 50 pixels and 10,000 pixels x 10,000 pixels.

  • If your PDFs are password-locked, you must remove the lock before submission.

  • The minimum height of the text to be extracted is 12 pixels for a 1024 x 768 pixel image. This dimension corresponds to about 8 point text at 150 dots per inch (DPI).

  • For custom model training, the maximum number of pages for training data is 500 for the custom template model and 50,000 for the custom neural model.

    • For custom extraction model training, the total size of training data is 50 MB for template model and 1 GB for the neural model.

    • For custom classification model training, the total size of training data is 1 GB with a maximum of 10,000 pages. For 2024-07-31-preview and later, the total size of training data is 2 GB with a maximum of 10,000 pages.
