ABBYY Vantage keeps count of all document pages processed by users with license-specific counters. The counter type used to calculate the number of processed pages depends on the skill used and on whether the skill is licensed or not. Licensed skills are skills that have been created by ABBYY or its partners and that have undergone the licensing procedure at ABBYY.
Note: For information about skills available in the ABBYY Vantage Catalog, see Built-in skills.
There are several types of counters used in ABBYY Vantage:
  1. Dedicated counters for licensed skills are used to count pages processed using those skills. Each licensed skill has its own dedicated counter (for example, ABBYY Air Waybill, and ABBYY Bill Of Lading).
  2. A Core Cognitive Skills counter is used to calculate the number of pages processed by all unlicensed ABBYY Vantage skills.
  3. An OCR Skill counter is used to calculate the number of pages processed using OCR skills.
  4. A Licensed Skills counter is used to calculate the number of pages processed by trial versions of licensed skills only. This lets you process documents using licensed skills whose counters are either not part of your license or have run out of pages to process. This way, you can try out a licensed skill before purchasing it.

When Pages Are Counted

Pages are counted for documents processed during design time when modifying Document and Classification skills and during runtime when using any type of skill (Document, Classification, Process, or OCR). Design time document processing for Document and Classification skills includes the following:
  • Importing demo documents into a Document skill
  • Importing files into a document set for training Document and Classification skills
Runtime document processing includes the following:
  • Uploading pages to the Documents section
  • Processing documents in transactions
  • Uploading documents when using the Try Skill feature
All document pages processed during both design time and runtime are counted in the corresponding skill counters.
Note: Pages will be counted even if the transaction fails after the import of their respective documents.
All subscription counters are updated once during a set period of time called “renewal period”. At the end of this period, all counter values are reset and the maximum number of pages becomes available to the user. The duration of the renewal period and its start date are the same for all counters in a subscription, regardless of when any of the skills were used for the first time. A single image of a page of any format is counted as one page, even if the image contains several different documents. If the number of pages available for processing by a specific skill has run out, or if the currently active subscription does not provide access to the required processing skill, users will not be able to create new transactions using such skills. For more information, see Subscription Limits.

​
How Pages Are Counted for Process Skills

Generally, Process skills contain one or more OCR, Document and/or Classification skills (which can be both licensed and unlicensed). Depending on the exact set of skills contained within a Process skill, pages for the document being processed will be counted as follows:
  • If the Process skill uses only unlicensed skills. Each page will increment the Core Cognitive Skills counter once, regardless of the number of skills used to process it.
  • If the Process skill uses one licensed skill. Each page will increment the licensed skill’s counter once, regardless of how many times the licensed skill was used to process the document.
  • If the Process skill uses unlicensed skills and one licensed skill. Each page will increment the licensed skill’s counter or the Core Cognitive Skills counter, depending on what skill was used to process the documents.
  • If the Process skill uses several licensed skills. Each document page will increment each licensed skill’s counter.
Note: If for some skill(s) contained within a Process skill all related counters have reached their respective limits, no transaction will be launched.
