Changelog

DokuScan is continuously evolving. Here we document every step — new features, improvements and bug fixes.

Current version

v1.2.0 — Table columns, inbox automation & validation

Custom table columns, submit documents by email, automatic rule checking, template version history

July 2025
  • Table extraction with custom columns: New "table" field type — define as many columns per row as you need. Ideal for invoice line items, order lists or delivery notes with multiple values per row.
  • Inbox automation: Every template gets its own email address. Send a document as an attachment — DokuScan processes it automatically, no login required. Included from the Starter package.
  • Validation rules: Min/max values for number fields, allowed options for text fields, and automatic checks for dates in the future. Scans with issues are clearly flagged in the review view.
  • Template version history: Every change to a template is automatically saved as a version. View earlier states at any time and restore them with one click.
Spring 2025

v1.1.0 — Table extraction & review workflow

Read, review and export table rows

April 2025
  • Table extraction: DokuScan can now extract entire tables from documents — each row is saved as its own record. Ideal for timesheets, delivery notes and order lists.
  • Three extraction modes: Individual fields, table rows, or both combined — depending on how the document is structured.
  • Improved review view: Every extracted row can be individually reviewed, corrected, added or deleted — directly in the browser, no download required.
  • Confidence display: Every scan shows how confident the AI was during extraction. Low values signal that manual review is advisable.
  • Field types: Text, numbers, date, yes/no — the AI automatically recognizes the appropriate type and formats values accordingly.
  • Improved security: Document content is clearly separated from processing instructions — attempts to manipulate the system via uploaded documents are detected and blocked.

v1.0.0 — First stable release

DokuScan is ready for production use

March 2025
  • Scan packages: One-time payments with no subscription or credit card — simply buy and use scans. Unused scans never expire.
  • 10 free scans: New accounts can try DokuScan without registering a payment method.
  • Automatic credit: If a scan fails, the credit is automatically refunded.
  • Duplicate protection: Files that have already been uploaded are automatically detected and not billed twice.
  • PDF splitting: Multi-page PDFs are automatically split — each page processed as its own scan.
  • Processing display: After upload, DokuScan shows in real time which documents are currently being processed.
  • Secure file storage: All documents are stored encrypted in the EU. No access by third parties.
Beta 2024 / 2025

  • Batch export: Export multiple scans at once as a single file.
  • Single export: Download an individual scan directly from the review view.

  • Duplicate templates: Copy existing templates and adapt them for similar documents.
  • Default template: Mark a template as the default — automatically suggested on the next upload.
  • Recently used: DokuScan remembers which template was used last.

v0.6.0 — AI extraction & text recognition

Nov 2024
  • Fast text recognition: Digital PDFs are read directly — noticeably faster than scanned documents.
  • OCR for scans and photos: Scanned documents and photos are automatically prepared via text recognition before the AI takes over.
  • Error retry: If processing fails, a second and third attempt is automatically started.
  • Background processing: All scans are processed in the background — the browser doesn't need to stay open.

v0.5.0 — Upload system

  • Up to 25 files at once: PDF, JPG and PNG up to 20 MB per file.
