Why it matters

OCR is often one layer inside a broader document-intelligence system; it reads characters, while later steps interpret meaning, context and required actions.

What to look for in a real system

The term is only useful when it connects to a real workflow. Buyers should ask what data is involved, what happens when the system is uncertain, how permissions are enforced, how failures are handled, and how the result is measured.
