Adobe Scan

Adobe Scan is a mobile-first intelligent ingestion engine that serves as the entry point for the Adobe Document Cloud ecosystem. By 2026, the tool has fully integrated Adobe Sensei GenAI to go beyond simple image capture. It utilizes advanced computer vision for real-time edge detection, perspective correction, and shadow removal, transforming physical documents into high-fidelity, searchable PDFs. Its technical architecture leverages on-device processing for latency-free capture while utilizing cloud-based OCR (Optical Character Recognition) to support over 20 languages with sub-character accuracy. Positioned as a mission-critical tool for distributed workforces, Adobe Scan allows for the immediate conversion of whiteboards, receipts, and multi-page contracts into structured digital assets. In the 2026 market, it distinguishes itself through deep integration with Acrobat's AI Assistant, enabling users to capture a document and instantly generate a summary or query the content via natural language directly from their mobile device. The tool's ability to handle complex layouts and even recognize handwriting makes it a leading solution for enterprise-grade mobile document processing.
