Our take
ABBYY has been pushing the boundaries of technology since the 80s, when it was founded with the launch of a digital language translation dictionary. Since then, it has evolved into a document translation and processing solution, leveraging innovations in automation and AI to help companies process and translate legal and administrative documents.
With years of experience in the automation and optical recognition sector, it is no wonder ABBYY’s clients number in the hundreds of thousands and include a number of Fortune 500 businesses. Lately, it seems the company has been bolstering its leadership team as it aims to grow revenue and continue expanding the global business.
