ScanLayer is an AI scanning agent that reads your documents, extracts the data that matters, and triggers the next action — without you lifting a finger.
Traditional scanning gives you an image. ScanLayer gives you a workflow.
Upload a document, receipt, label, or ID. Mobile, desktop, or API — ScanLayer handles any format, any quality.
AI reads and classifies the document. Extracts every field you care about — no templates, no configuration.
Data goes wherever it needs — CRM, accounting software, inventory system. Rules or AI-decided. You choose.
No field mapping. No templates. Drop any document and get structured JSON — dates, amounts, addresses, line items — extracted automatically.
Define rules once. When ScanLayer reads an invoice, it routes it. When it sees a shipping label, it updates inventory. You build the logic once.
Drop a document at 2am. Get structured data by morning. The agent runs on your schedule, processes on ours, reports when you check.
Integrate in minutes. iOS, Android, and web SDKs. REST API for server-side processing. Webhooks for every action.
Warped scans, low resolution, poor lighting — ScanLayer was built for real-world documents, not the clean ones in demos.
Your documents don't train our models. SOC 2 Type II compliant. End-to-end encryption. Self-hosted option available.
// Scan a document and get structured data in 3 lines
import { ScanLayer } from '@scanlayer/sdk';
const client = new ScanLayer({ apiKey: process.env.SL_KEY });
// Upload and extract — everything else is automatic
const result = await client.extract({
file: './invoice.pdf',
workflow: 'route-to-accounting'
});
// result.structured contains every extracted field
// result.workflow shows what was triggered
console.log(result.structured); // → { vendor, amount, date, lineItems[...] }We built ScanLayer the way developers actually work: clean APIs, SDKs that work the first time, and error messages that actually help.
Every receipt you retyped. Every invoice you manually entered. Every label you copied and pasted. That work is done. ScanLayer does it from here.
