Could Kaagaz Scanner Replace the gape with the CamScanner
India is the fastest growing consumer internet market in the world, with 19 billion downloads in 2019. That positions India as the second largest market for app downloads. But does Aatma Nirbhar India have the alternatives to these apps that can quickly fill the space vacated by the Chinese apps? The report says, it has 2 lakh installations in less than 2 days with 4.7 rating.
India has built an alternative named Kaagaz Scanner which aims to do exactly what CamScanner used to do. Kaagaz Scanner has been built by Sorted AI, an Indian startup, to fill the void left by CamScanner. Kaagaz Scanner’, the app has claimed over 1 lakh downloads within one day of CamScanner being banned, and is presently seeing considerable interest on the Google Play Store.No sign in, No Ads & Watermark and it is completely free.
The Kaagaz Scanner is a scanner app by IIT graduates to scan and share documents. The app offers three scanning modes, detects page edges automatically and shares the document on multiple social media platforms. The app can also scan multiple documents at once and does not insert a watermark.
Kaagaz Scanner aims to do exactly what CamScanner used to, only in an Indian guise. CamScanner was blacklisted in light of its ties to China. Since it was largely used to scan personal identification documents, storing of such documents on the cloud server of an app hosted in China was deemed as a security violation. It is this that Sorted AI’s ‘Kaagaz Scanner’ aims to cash in on, and fill the space left open by marketing an ‘Indian alternative’.
