According to the latest report by IMARC Group, titled “Optical Character Recognition (OCR) Market Report by Type (Software, Services), Mode of Operation (B2B, B2C), Vertical (Retail, BFSI, Government, Education, Transport and Logistics, Healthcare, IT and Telecom, and Others), and Region 2024-2032,” the global optical character recognition (OCR) market size reached US$ 12.2 Billion in 2023. Optical character recognition (OCR) is used to convert printed or handwritten text into digital data that can be easily edited, searched, and stored on electronic devices. It relies on advanced algorithms and image processing techniques to recognize characters, words, and even entire documents from scanned or photographed images. It assists in eliminating the need for manual data entry, thereby improving efficiency and accuracy. As a result, OCR is widely employed in the banking, financial services, and insurance (BFSI), healthcare, and transportation sectors across the globe.

At present, the rising adoption of OCR to reduce the risks of human errors represents one of the primary factors strengthening the growth of the market. Additionally, increasing preferences for cloud-based OCR services, as they provide enhanced scalability and accessibility, are contributing to the market growth. Apart from this, the growing demand for OCR among organizations seeking efficient ways to manage and process digital documents is positively influencing the market. In addition, the rising focus on enhancing productivity in a company is propelling the market growth. Besides this, the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) in OCR to improve character recognition accuracy is supporting the market growth. Furthermore, the growing demand for OCR to reduce labor costs associated with manual data entry is offering a positive market outlook. Looking forward, the market value is projected to reach US$ 40.8 Billion by 2032, expanding at a CAGR of 14.2% during 2024-2032.
