It may seem a bit strange that the young developers at BIT Software (as ABBYY was called back then) started working OCR technologies right after launching a dictionary application, but in fact this is no coincidence.įineReader’s roots stem from the early 90s, when BIT Software began developing an ambitious solution called Lingvo Systems that allowed users to scan documents and translate them into a different language.
That is only a little less than the age of a lesser-known ABBYY product, the Lingvo dictionary application, which happens to be the company’s first. FineReader, ABBYY’s optical character recognition (OCR) application, which now has millions of users worldwide from Antarctica to Greenland and the North Pole and takes the leading places in OCR market, turns 23 this year.
