A line of software for use with digital pens, designed for organizations[1] to automate paper-based data collection and operations which have resisted other digital automation.[2] Paper survives because it’s easy and reliable- but paper-based workflows[3] include manual labor like scanning and data entry. Data on paper frequently languishes in the field, waiting to get delivered, scanned, re-typed, or is subject to misinterpretation during transcription.[4]

The challenge Capturx attempts to tackle is getting important data off paper to keep organization processes moving.[5] Capturx works as an add-in with Microsoft Office OneNote,[6] Excel,[7] SharePoint,[8] ArcGIS,and PDF software, passing structured handwritten paper map, forms, and notebook data to applications in their native file formats, preserving the unique features or attributes of the data for each application.

The add-in software works with digital pens from Anoto.[9] Anoto also created the technology behind the digital pattern that helps the digital pens to track the data. The pattern is like a digital fingerprint making each printed page unique to each application and file,[10] as the pen writes it stores the handwriting digitally for integration into the native application of the paper document.

The software and digital pens are typically used for field service,[11] data collection, note taking,[12] compliance, GIS data collection, building plans and CAD mark-ups.[13]

Maker of Capturx Software

Capturx products are produced by Adapx, Inc., a natural user interface software company. Adapx, Inc., was started in 1999 and is based in Seattle, WA. Adapx also creates solutions for defense agencies,[14] for example Multimodal technology from Adapx has been part of the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) Deep Green project[15] to develop a decision-making support system for the United States Army.[16]
