Getting to documents into my AWS S3 folder is not a problem: I use a scanner or the Adobe scan app on on my phone to drop the application into my folder which syncs to AWS S3.
My biggest issue is finding those documents like "oh its tax season -- where is the receipt for the stuff that I bought from Staples " or "where is the reciept for the medicine I bought so that I could file it for the insurance reimburesment" .
I am hacking away using AWS ML APIs but so far I am not happy with my results.
- jmiserez 5y agoI've found - after trying several apps and custom scripts to do OCR - that the easiest most convenient solution is to just get a printer/scanner combo that does the PDF & OCR directly in hardware. That usually means something targeted towards SMBs that works standalone (in my case a Canon). I.e. specifically not a consumer device: the consumer units usually rely on separate client-side software for doing the OCR processing which complicates the workflow.
