Robotics & captcha with Pega 8

Hello,

i am wondering about one of the Pega 8 features : the extraction of contents from image-based files.

cf. link: Pegasystems Documentation

Does that mean it is now possible to automatically read a captcha from a website with robotic automation ?

Thank you for your time,

Best regards

@clemencel The document OCR component is for documents that you have already downloaded. You could take a screenshot of the CAPTCHA and save it as a document and attempt to read it, however that is not likely going to work as CAPTCHAS are designed to defeat OCR.
