HVH DocReader uses artificial intelligence to read and extract text from scanned documents, bank instruments, PDFs, and images. Everything runs on your machine. Your documents never leave your desk.
Attorneys, accountants, and compliance officers handle sensitive documents every day. DocReader was built from the ground up for the way you actually work.
Every document is processed on your local machine. Nothing is uploaded, transmitted, or stored externally. Attorney-client privilege stays intact.
Reads through watermarks, faded text, poor scans, and complex financial layouts that traditional OCR tools struggle with.
Process JPG, PNG, TIFF, BMP, WEBP, and multi-page PDFs. Each page is handled individually with per-page progress tracking.
Organize documents by client or matter. Each case gets its own folder structure with originals, OCR results, and exports neatly separated.
One-click export to four formats. Save individually or batch export all at once. Results go straight to your case's export folder.
Process unlimited documents with your license. No metered pricing, no usage caps, no surprises on your bill at the end of the month.
Name it, and DocReader creates the folder structure automatically. Originals, results, and exports stay organized from day one.
Drag in files or select a folder. DocReader accepts scanned images, photos of documents, and PDFs of any length.
Hit Process. The AI reads your document and extracts every character. Export to TXT, CSV, PDF, or DOCX with one click.
Most OCR tools are either too expensive, cloud-dependent, or built for IT teams. DocReader fills the gap.

No. DocReader does not phone home, track usage, collect analytics, or transmit any data after installation. There is no telemetry, no usage reporting, and no background connections. What happens on your machine stays on your machine.
Yes. DocReader installs and runs on individual workstations. It does not require network access, server infrastructure, or IT department configuration. Each machine with a license operates independently.
Your existing OCR results and exports remain on your machine and are always accessible. You simply lose the ability to process new documents until you renew. No data is deleted or locked.
Yes. The AI-powered OCR engine can read handwritten notes, receipts, and documents with mixed handwriting and printed text. Results vary based on handwriting legibility, but the AI handles far more than traditional OCR tools.
Every document is processed locally on your machine using an AI engine that runs without internet. No document content is uploaded, transmitted, cached, or stored on any external server. Privileged documents never leave your custody.
Yes. On first launch, DocReader lets you pick your working folder. You can set it to any location on your machine, including an existing folder structure where you keep client files. Case folders, originals, and exports are all organized within the path you choose.
Because DocReader processes everything locally with zero data transmission, it eliminates the primary HIPAA concern with cloud-based OCR tools: data leaving your control. No Business Associate Agreement is needed because no third party ever touches your documents.
DocReader was built on a simple principle: sensitive documents should never leave your control. Here is exactly how we keep that promise.
Every OCR operation runs on your local CPU and GPU. No document content is ever uploaded to any server, cloud service, or external API. The AI engine is installed on your machine and operates entirely offline.
DocReader does not collect usage data, analytics, crash reports, or any form of telemetry. After initial setup, the application makes zero network connections. There are no background processes contacting external servers.
Documents, OCR results, and exports are stored only in the folder you choose on your machine. Nothing is cached in temp directories, uploaded to backup services, or synchronized with cloud storage. You have complete control.
Attorneys, accountants, and healthcare professionals face strict data handling requirements. DocReader's fully local architecture means no BAAs, no data processing agreements, and no third-party risk assessments needed.
