Check image processing has been around for a decade, but it was dominated by very large service organizations servicing large corporate clients. Recent innovations in desktop check scanner technologies, unveiled a low cost check and small document capture market for low volume market segments. A single desktop Check and Small Document (CSD) scanner retails for under $10,000 and permits the capture of up to 10,000 items a day.

CSD equipment not only captures the back and front (duplex scanning) of each item, but also captures the MICR (Magnetic Ink Character Recognition) line encoded in the item, thus providing safe, automatic indexing. Additional indexing, if needed, may be performed by a combination of: OCR of selected typed zones on the item, Image assisted keyboard data entry, ICR (Intelligent Character Recognition) of handwritten text, including CAR (Courtesy Amount Recognition), and bar code recognition.

Capturing checks, deposit slips, tickets, coupons, bills, or any other small size documents and publishing them on CD offers a myriad of advantages, and opens the door to new competitive subproducts, including electronic statements, with searchable and printable miniatures of each side of the item, and immediate, on line access to check images for customer service and fraud prevention.

Isa.'s Check₂CD service is offered in four options:

1. Off-site capture
2. On-site capture
3. Facilities Management
4. Contract-to-Own
