GeraLens in India 2026 — Vision Models for Indian Documents and Retail

Published 21 April 2026 · 8 min read · en-IN

GeraLens is a vision API tuned for Indian documents and retail contexts. It extracts structured data from PAN, Aadhaar (masked), GST invoices, bank statements, utility bills, and the full canon of kirana-store shelf layouts and trade dress.

GeraLens and the Indian regulatory picture

Document-understanding APIs touch MeitY's DPDP Act 2023 (personal data), the Aadhaar Act 2016 and UIDAI rules (Aadhaar numbers must be masked when not used via Authentication User Agency), CERT-In for incident reporting, and sectoral rules (RBI for fintech use of KYC, IRDAI for health and motor claim documents). GST Council rules apply to anything touching e-invoice / IRN data.

What Indian teams solve with GeraLens

  • PAN, Aadhaar (masked), Voter ID, Driving Licence parsing
  • GST invoice and e-invoice IRN extraction
  • Bank-statement and salary-slip parsing for lending
  • Utility-bill address verification
  • FSSAI-label compliance checks
  • Kirana-store shelf recognition and SKU compliance
  • Medical prescription and lab-report structuring for GeraClinic

What you pay in rupees

  • Free tier: ₹0 incl. monthly credit
  • Pay-as-you-go: ₹0.60–₹2.00 per document
  • Team: ₹4,999/month with volume discount
  • Enterprise: Custom SLA and region pinning

Paying the Indian way — UPI, cards, and more

How GeraLens compares to Indian alternatives

  • AWS Textract — strong English, weak Indian forms
  • Google Document AI — broad, not India-pattern-tuned
  • Azure Document Intelligence — similar constraints
  • Signzy — India-first KYC doc processing
  • IDfy — India-first identity automation

Coverage across India's cities

Models run in Mumbai and Hyderabad by default. Enterprise customers in Bengaluru, Mumbai, Delhi NCR, Chennai, Hyderabad, Pune, Kolkata, and Ahmedabad can pin workloads to a specific region.

Hindi and regional-language availability

हिन्दी में अनुवाद — the API works across Hindi and regional-language forms natively; dashboard Hindi localisation is rolling out.
