The TWAIN Working Group, established in 1992, is an association of industry leaders gathered to create a standard that benefits the industry as a whole. 

The TWAIN Working Group creates opportunities for application developers, hardware manufacturers, and users to link software applications with image acquisition devices (scanners). 

Join the TWAIN Working Group and Adopt TWAIN Direct®! 

Are you familiar with TWAIN Direct and the next generation of cloud-based image acquisition technology? 

Did you know that TWAIN Direct offers a universal platform for scanning documents from any brand scanning device, without proprietary device drivers? Best of all it can be embedded into any document management application using a traditional PC or Mobile device regardless of its operating system. 

The future of image acquisition is here. If you are an independent software vendor or hardware OEM, TWAIN Direct is positioned to revolutionize the image acquisition process by creating a universal platform for both hardware and software! 

The TWAIN Working Group has developed everything you need to develop a TWAIN Direct hardware or software solution. Beyond a working specification, we offer everything you need from sample code to applications, including our TWAIN Bridge which allows you to turn any USB-based scanner into a network discoverable device. 

Ready to start developing a TWAIN Direct enabled device or adding a universal scanning platform to your cloud-based software? Do you want to contribute to any improvements day forward by becoming a member of the TWAIN Working Group? Join us today.
