Kofax

Information capture and classification for document exploitation

Kofax is the world’s leading provider of information capture solutions. Kofax products collect documents from throughout organizations, automatically transform them into actionable information, and deliver it all into applications, databases and archives for immediate exploitation. No other company has the same global reach, depth of experience, or breadth of technology devoted to capturing information. The company’s Ascent platform is the most popular capture application worldwide, its VRS (VirtualReScan) is the de facto standard for perfecting scanned images, and its Mohomine and Neurascript technologies provide unparalleled capabilities for categorizing and extracting information from unstructured documents. Kofax products are widely used in government, finance, insurance, healthcare, and a broad range of companies and agencies that need to drive critical processes with information from paper and electronic documents.

Since its founding in 1985, Irvine, California-based Kofax has forged strong partnerships with content management and workflow vendors such as IBM, Convera, Documentum, Open Text, FileNet, Interwoven, and Stellent, and scanner manufacturers such as Böwe Bell & Howell, Fujitsu, Kodak, and Hewlett-Packard. Richard Murphy, president and chief executive officer of Kofax, has been with the company since 1989 and has more than 35 years of experience in the computer industry.

Kofax products and customer installations have won many industry awards over the years, including the Best Solutions Award at the 2004 Southwest Government Technology Conference and the 2003 Reader’s Choice Award for Ascent Capture from the readers of Transform magazine. In-Q-Tel initiated a strategic partnership with Kofax in April 2001. For more information about Kofax, please visit www.kofax.com.
