Common questions
Quick answers to common questions about our Proof of Address OCR.
What document types are supported?
Our extractor is designed to handle a wide range of proof of address documents, including utility bills (electricity, water, gas, telecom), bank and credit card statements, government certificates, tax documents, insurance policies, rental agreements, and official letters.
Does it verify the authenticity of the document?
No, this is an OCR-based extraction service. While we extract security features like verification codes (CSV) or URLs when present, you are responsible for validating that the document is authentic and currently valid according to your specific requirements.
What address formats are supported?
The extractor supports most international address formats, automatically parsing them into structured fields like street, city, postal code, and country. If you have a specific or non-standard address format that requires specialized parsing, we can adapt our model to your needs upon request.
Can it identify the specific type of document uploaded?
Yes. The extractor provides both a structured category (e.g., UTILITY_BILL, BANK_STATEMENT) and a detailed free-text description generated by our model, which often includes the issuer name and the specific nature of the document.
