Pros
Over a decade in the intelligent-document-processing market, with more than $300 million raised backing continued development
Human-in-the-loop review reduces the silent-error risk of fully automated extraction on messy real-world documents
On-premises deployment option fits regulated industries like insurance, government, and healthcare that can't send documents to a pure cloud service

Named a Leader in the 2025 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Intelligent Document Processing
Covers a full document-workflow stack rather than a single point solution
Cons
Pricing is entirely custom and undisclosed, making it hard to budget without a sales cycle
Per-page charges, reportedly up to $1.50 a page in some deployments, can add up fast at enterprise document volumes
Built for large-scale, high-document-volume operations, more than a small business processing a handful of forms a day needs
Enterprise-only pricing with no published rates, and third-party estimates run into six figures annually
Recent 2024 rebrand from Kofax may cause confusion with legacy documentation and integrations
Enterprise document-automation rollouts run into months, not days, before going live
