OCR and organize your entire document backlog

Drop a folder of scans and Lido OCRs every file, renames each one by content, and sorts it into the right folder. No more "scan001.pdf."

  • Content-based renaming. Files are named from the content: vendor, date, document number, or any field you choose.
  • Auto-sort into folders. Documents route by type, department, vendor, or any rule you set.
  • Backlog and ongoing. Clear a backlog in one run, then process new files as they arrive from a watched folder.

How batch OCR and organize works in Lido

1

Drop your documents

Upload a folder of PDFs, scanned images, or mixed files. Lido queues and processes them immediately.

2

OCR and read content

Lido runs OCR on every file—including handwritten text and low-quality scans—making all content searchable and extractable.

3

Rename and sort automatically

Each file is renamed from extracted fields (vendor, date, reference number) and routed to the correct destination folder automatically.

Why disorganized document folders are a productivity tax

The search-and-find grind

  • Files arrive named "scan001.pdf" with no searchable content inside.
  • Your team scrolls through thumbnails and opens files one by one.
  • A ten-second retrieval becomes five minutes across hundreds of requests.

Every file organized the moment it arrives

  • Every scanned document is OCR-processed and made fully searchable.
  • Files are auto-named from their content and routed to the right folder.
  • Retrieval is instant because every file is correctly named and filed.
