What this API enables

The Deepvue Bank Cheque OCR API enables organizations to:

Replace manual cheque keying

Turn a user-uploaded image or PDF into structured data in one call, no operator typing it row by row.

Open an account from the cheque alone

Capture the holder and bank details an onboarding or account-detail flow needs from a single upload.

Reconcile against the MICR band

Parse the magnetic band at the foot of the cheque to match records and route clearing.

Set up payouts from a cheque

ifsc_code plus account_no give you what a disbursal or payout mandate needs to route funds.

Route weak scans for review

Flag photocopied or rescanned uploads automatically so a person checks them before they enter your records.

Clear high-volume cheque queues

Batch cheque images through one endpoint instead of keying each one by hand.

How the API works

From cheque upload to structured output in four steps.

Upload cheque

Submit a user-provided cheque image or PDF document through a secure API request.

Process text and MICR

The OCR workflow processes the uploaded cheque and identifies relevant text and MICR regions.

Extract and normalize

Structured cheque fields are extracted, normalized, and prepared for use.

Return cheque data

A response is returned with cheque data ready for banking, payment, lending, or operations workflows.

Deepvue provides OCR infrastructure for extracting structured outputs and does not independently source banking data or verify cheque authenticity through this workflow.

Cheque in. Structured data out.

OCR designed for banking, payments, lending, and operations pipelines.
