You can use WorkFusion RPA Express to automate any type of repetitive process that has been mapped. The tool has a low learning curve, allowing new users of the tool to acquire knowledge quickly. It is not recommended to overuse the OCR functionality of the tool, due to the high cost of the license per page exceeded. I recommend using an external API to read OCR.
