An Arabic OCR API is a REST API that accepts an Arabic document (or bilingual Arabic + English document) and returns extracted text or structured data — field-level extraction, dates, names, amounts — with correct right-to-left (RTL) text handling and Arabic numeral support. XPndAI Extract's Arabic OCR API is trained on UAE business documents: invoices, Emirates ID, bank statements, contracts, and government documents. Accuracy is 94%+ on standard printed Arabic text.
XPndAI Extract achieves 94%+ accuracy on standard printed Arabic text in UAE business documents. Accuracy varies by document quality: clear PDF invoices 97%+, printed contracts 94–96%, scanned documents 88–93%, handwritten Arabic 75–85%. Accuracy on bilingual Arabic + English documents is comparable to single-language documents. Arabic numerals (٠١٢٣٤٥٦٧٨٩) are correctly extracted and converted to Western numerals in the output.
XPndAI Extract's Arabic OCR correctly handles RTL text direction — text is extracted in the correct reading order, not reversed. Mixed RTL/LTR documents (bilingual Arabic + English) are handled by detecting language boundaries and applying the correct reading direction for each block. Column detection in bilingual invoices and tables correctly identifies Arabic right-hand columns and English left-hand columns.
For UAE-specific documents, XPndAI Extract outperforms general-purpose OCR platforms (AWS Textract, Azure Document Intelligence, Google Document AI) in three ways: higher accuracy on UAE document formats (Emirates ID, UAE trade licences, UAE bank statements); Arabic + English bilingual structured extraction; and UAE-specific field validation (TRN format, Emirates ID number format, IBAN format). Pricing is comparable or lower for structured document extraction at AED 0.15–0.30/page.
