History
Dynamsoft was founded in September 2003. The company is privately held and organically funded.
The key areas of Dynamsoft's research and development are document imaging and barcode decoding. The SDKs are used by developers to remove the need for them to develop their own code. This removes months of work for them by eliminating the need to code as well as understand relevant industry standards and requirements. Over the last 18 years, many companies across the world have used Dynamsoft's SDK in their daily workflows to improve efficiency and reduce cost.
