What is iHandify?

iHandify: A Handwriting Recognition SDK Optimized for Every Business Environment Not everything can—and should—be digitized. How can businesses preserve the value of handwriting while seamlessly connecting it with the digital world? Rather than forcing paper out of the workplace, iHandify takes a different approach: connecting the analog experience of handwriting directly to digital workflows. Turning the way work is done—just as it is—into digital transformation. That is the vision behind iHandify, the next-generation handwriting recognition SDK developed by iLabo. iHandify goes beyond simply “reading handwritten characters.” Accuracy that fits the workplace: From quick handwriting and unique writing styles to complex mathematical formulas, our proprietary algorithms accurately capture what people write. Flexibility that fits your development: With the REST API released in June, integrating handwriting recognition into existing systems is remarkably straightforward. Simplicity that fits your operations: By reducing the time and effort spent on data entry and transcription, iHandify helps your teams focus on higher-value work. The intuitive nature of analog handwriting meets the efficiency of digital technology. iHandify brings the two together. “Could iHandify work in our environment?” If you’re asking yourself that question, we invite you to explore our newly updated service website. ▼ iHandify Service Website (https://ihandify.com/)...

Vietnamese Handwriting Recognition Engine Now Available

Vietnamese handwriting recognition is now part of the iHandify recognition engine lineup. This versatile handwritten Vietnamese recognition engine is suitable for a wide range of applications, from drafting documents and filling out forms to language learning and education. In addition to general handwriting input, the engine is particularly well suited for educational applications. It can recognize handwritten text as written even when it contains spelling mistakes, helping prevent incorrect answers from being mistakenly treated as correct. It also delivers high recognition accuracy for characters and features that can be challenging for conventional handwriting recognition technologies, including visually similar uppercase and lowercase letters such as “s, v, o, p, c,” spaces between words, and Vietnamese vowels and tone marks such as “à, â, ã, ă, ẫ.” This helps reduce the inconvenience of relying on keyboard input while providing a more natural handwriting experience.
