Today, our team launches a new extraction model: lighter, faster, and twice as cost-effective as our main Koncile Pro. You can try it now in your Koncile account.

Why Koncile Lite?

After hundreds of conversations with our clients about OCR, two needs kept coming up:

  • A more accessible cost per page, to fit business models where every extraction must generate a clear ROI.
  • Shorter processing times, crucial for B2C use cases, customer journeys, or KYC management.

Koncile Lite addresses exactly these needs: every processed page or image consumes 0.5 credit instead of 1 with Koncile Pro.

The feature is available today for all existing and new accounts.

How to enable Koncile Lite in the app?‍

In the app:

  • Click on “Documents” in the navigation bar.
  • Click the three dots next to a document template and select Template settings.
  • Select Koncile Lite
  • All new documents will then be processed with this model (previously processed documents will not be re-processed).

What types of documents is Koncile Lite best suited for?

Koncile Lite is ideal for structured documents, whether short or long. Examples include:

  • Identity documents, driving licences
  • Certificates
  • Bank statements
  • Vehicle registration documents, business cards
  • Short contracts
  • CVs
  • Company registration extracts
  • Utility bills
  • Invoices
  • Purchase orders

Like Koncile Pro, Koncile Lite captures and organises data from tables and line items.

What is the difference between Koncile Lite and Koncile Pro?

Koncile Pro remains the most powerful model for handling complex cases, such as forms, handwritten content, or documents with non-standard layouts.

For many documents, however, Koncile Lite will be more than sufficient, while delivering significant savings in your document processing. 

Our advice: test your documents with both models and compare the results.

I already have a subscription, does anything change?

No, nothing changes. Your account has been automatically updated, and your current credits can now also be used with Koncile Lite.

In healthcare, an OCR is judged on what it flags, not on what it reads

Every OCR vendor advertises high accuracy rates, and most of them deliver. On a health document, that is not the right buying criterion. What counts is what the tool does when it is not sure, what it lets you verify, and what it guarantees about the data it handles.
