Captricity is an award-winning Berkeley, CA-based technology company that offers a completely self-serve data entry service for digitizing paper forms. We can get data off of paper and into a digital spreadsheet quickly and cheaply, taking care of the data entry. It's not OCR, it's human-quality (double-key) data entry that works on hand-writing -- but at a fraction of the time and cost of manual data entry. The vision and technology behind Captricity came from founder Kuang Chen's PhD research (Comp Sci, UC Berkeley). While working in east Africa, Kuang saw that one of the biggest barriers to efficient service delivery was the seemingly simple task of getting data from paper into digital form. Finding patients “lost” to HIV treatment in urban Tanzania and helping community health workers count danger signs in rural Uganda both required processing huge quantities of paper-bound data. In this setting—and in many like it—paper isn’t going away any time soon. It didn’t take much imagination to see that solving this problem would unlock new possibilities for individuals and organizations using data to help solve scientific, medical, and development problems around the world.
