Intelligent Document Processing
IRISPowerscan through Canon IMS: Canon’s own high-volume capture platform that scans, separates, indexes and exports documents as fully searchable files.
IRISPowerscan handles the run from scanner to searchable archive: capture from scanners, multifunction devices, watched folders, email and the cloud, followed by automatic separation, indexing, quality control and export. Each document flow is configured once, so operators select a flow instead of rebuilding a job. IRISPowerscan is developed by I.R.I.S., part of the Canon Group.
Canon organises information management in four movements: Capture, Content, Communicate and Process. IRISPowerscan is Canon’s own engine for high-volume capture: it turns stacks of paper and incoming files into indexed, searchable documents, ready for IRISXtract, an archive or a workflow.
Good capture at the start is what makes every next step automatable.
When documents arrive by the box rather than one at a time, a single-sheet scanner and a folder structure stop working. IRISPowerscan is built for that volume: separation, indexing and quality control run per batch, not per document someone has to watch over.
IRISFingerprint learns the appearance of a document type and identifies it without relying on text, labels or barcodes. It combines with OCR, barcode, patch code, intelligent character and optical mark recognition, depending on what each document needs.
SEE IT IN ACTION
Bring a stack of your own documents and see how IRISPowerscan separates, indexes and exports them, live with a Canon IMS consultant.
Each document flow is set up once, with its own separation, indexing and export rules. Operators select the flow instead of rebuilding a scan job, and quality control catches problems before they reach the archive or the next system.
IRISPowerscan exports fully searchable files and structured formats, so what comes out is usable by people and systems alike. Intelligent compression makes scanned files up to 50 times smaller while keeping them searchable and print quality.
A scanned batch should not stop at being an archive. IRISPowerscan hands documents on to classification and extraction platforms such as IRISXtract, so the same capture chain also delivers validated data to ERP, ECM or workflow.
High-volume throughput: Separation, indexing and quality control per batch instead of per document.
Fewer manual steps: Document flows are configured once and reused, so operators no longer rebuild jobs.
Smaller, searchable archives: Fully searchable output, compressed up to 50 times for long-term storage.
Ready for automation: Captured documents flow straight into IRISXtract, an archive or a workflow.
Canon IMS takes responsibility for your IRISPowerscan environment from first analysis to daily operation: advice, implementation, support and managed services under one contract with agreed service levels.
Advice and consultancy: We look at your document volumes, formats and scanning workplaces, and tell you honestly whether IRISPowerscan fits.
Implementation and migration: We design your workflows, integrate IRISPowerscan with your core systems and go live in phases.
Support and maintenance under SLA: Support, maintenance and upgrades with agreed response and resolution times.
Managed services: We operate and monitor IRISPowerscan for you, on-premises, in the cloud or hybrid.
IRISPowerscan is our choice for organisations and service bureaus that still receive paper in volume, such as mailrooms, archives and back offices, and want a Canon-owned capture platform. For purely digital document streams, IRISXtract on its own or ABBYY Vantage may fit better.
We propose what fits your process, not what we happen to sell.
IRISPowerscan is Canon technology, developed by I.R.I.S. within the Canon Group, and Canon IMS delivers it end to end together with the scanners, implementation, support under an SLA and optional managed services.
IRISPowerscan is a high-volume capture platform that scans and imports documents from scanners, multifunction devices, folders, email and the cloud, then separates, indexes, checks and exports them as searchable files.
IRISFingerprint is a recognition technology that learns what a document type looks like and identifies it without relying on text, labels or barcodes, which makes separation and classification of mixed batches more reliable.
IRISPowerscan handles scanning, separation and indexing; IRISXtract adds AI classification and data extraction. Together they take a document from paper or file to validated data.
IRISPowerscan can make scanned files up to 50 times smaller while keeping them fully searchable and print quality, which reduces storage for long-term archives.
