Shiraishi Corporation, a regional manufacturer in Fukui Prefecture, introduced route-D AI Data Input to automate order receiving. The AI-OCR system reads purchase orders with varying formats without pre-configuration, solving accuracy issues that prevented adoption of conventional OCR. Within months, all staff used it, enabling remote work and standardization. The system is now expanding to other divisions.
Shiraishi Corporation had previously evaluated OCR solutions and decided against them because conventional systems could not handle slight layout differences and format variations in purchase orders from different business partners. The company then trialed route-D AI Data Input, which uses AI to read and automatically determine items from documents without coordinate settings. The system also learns special input rules and converts proprietary notations to in-house codes. After introduction, all staff were using it within a few months, and the review of workflows enabled remote work and a more flexible operational structure. The system is now being adopted in other divisions.
