Like AmRedact, AmCad Assisted Indexing (AmAI) is fully owned and maintained by AmCad. The AmAI engine performs Optical Character Recognition (OCR) for machine print text. The AmAI engine evaluates the quality of an image and available index information such as Case/Document Type, Parties, etc. to determine how to best process that image.

AmCad’s Disaster Backup & Recovery service uses the AmSync product as described above. AmSync provides a seamless transmission of information ranging from indexed data and images to full system information including audited information, financials, tables, etc. The service allows true, seamless backup and recovery services without the addition of a third party or user interaction. Other options include co-location services, dedicated server and rack configurations, multi-state mirroring (mirrored solutions between AmCad facilities) and a host of other levels of services.

AmCad provides all of these services in our secure Rock Island, Illinois facility. The AmCad Technology center is located on a secure, active military base. Security on the base and the facility is unparalleled in the public records industry.

AmCad’s eCommerce solution is an existing module within our AiCMS product. Providing an eCommerce solution through AmCad offers a risk-free partnership for any public records agency. AmCad provides a seamless integrated solution at no cost. An integrated solution provided by a single vendor reduces the risk for error, fraud, and finger-pointing, and enhances customer service through a single, seamless interface.

AmCad is not owned by a data warehouse company. Our mission is to provide state-of-the-art solutions for our government customers. Our goal is providing solutions that best enhance your ability to service your customers and constituents. We never package or resell your data. By our contract, your data and your constituents' data is kept to the highest standards of security and confidentiality. It is processed only for transaction purposes. This ensures the confidentiality of your customer’s data and ensures a secure, efficient transaction.

AmCad provides image-enabled solutions for government and commercial enterprises. These solutions range from a single user to thousands of users. The key to success is the ability to start in a single department and grow to enterprise scale, without changing the underlying architecture or software. AmCad represents several leading software products, each of which provide the flexibility and scalability to meet your requirements.

The problem of identity theft through information provided over the Internet is a growing concern for individuals, corporations, and government entities. AmCad is in the vanguard of technology producers seeking to identify and eliminate, or “redact," sensitive personal data from Internet-based images.

AMCAD’s Rapid Online Access Method (ROAM) based on Smart Data Layer technology, makes available a line of business application’s structured databases (irrespective of underlying technology) much like an Internet Search Engine does with unstructured data. ROAM’s power lies in the fact that – in as much as it is a search tool – it is also an integration tool, a data mining tool and a business intelligence tool. All the more, implementation is in ‘web time’ and cost is ‘low’. ROAM can access most common databases, index all the data and make it available via a web browser or as a web service (in XML format). ROAM provides sophisticated and optimized ranking along with a wide range of data analyzers. Each data source can be treated differently by configuration of the ROAM product, to get the most value out of it. Accessing silo databases across departments now is easier, with a single technology solution. For more information see the ROAM Case Study.

Data once liberated from line of business applications can be used to its potential. The ease of access provided by ROAM to any database can be used to significantly improve citizen and business services, and provide a unified view of all local government data (with security remaining a prime consideration).  Access to data puts the power back in the hands of the local IT department. Being held hostage by a single vendor or inadequate technology soon becomes a problem of the past. ROAM offers the ability to rapidly index data from any industry standard database. How the data is used once it is indexed is virtually limitless and can be configured and driven by local IT departments.
