Dallas-based tech consultancy The Everest Group has released its annual evaluation of intelligent document processing (IDP) technology providers ($) for 2026. The company, which produces “PEAK Matrix” reports for dozens of technology sectors including several related to intelligent automation, named ABBYY, EdgeVerve, HCL Tech, Hyperscience, Infrrd, Microsoft, Nanonets, Rossum, Tungsten Automation, and UiPath as “Leaders” in the space.
In its report, Everest Group notes that IDP adoption is growing as enterprises struggle with automating processes that require growing volumes of semi-structured and unstructured data. More providers than ever, it says, are offering solutions to challenges that include: “data variability, integration complexities, governance, and the need for human-in-the-loop validation. Providers are responding by enhancing interoperability, monitoring capabilities, and security features, while also offering domain-specific solutions.”
Thirty-two vendors that provide IDP technology either as a standalone solution or as part of an automation platform are evaluated in this year’s report, up from 29 last year. In addition to the 10 leaders, the report also assessed Adlib, Aluma, Appian, AWS, Datamatics, Google, ImageSource, Indico Data, Instabase, Iron Mountain, Kanverse.ai, Laiye, Neutrinos, Nividous, Parashift, Perfios, qBotica, Roots, Salesforce, UST, WorkFusion and XBP Global.
