Snapshot
ClaimBee, a fast-growing Romanian startup in the travel and legal tech space, helps airline passengers claim compensation for disrupted flights under EU regulations. To streamline the process, they integrated Dynamsoft Barcode Reader SDK into their platform to accurately scan boarding passes and auto-extract flight data. Previously reliant on unreliable open-source tools, ClaimBee dramatically improved accuracy, speed, and user experience with Dynamsoft’s solution—reducing manual input, boosting submission rates, and enabling their small team to scale efficiently across Europe.
Introduction
ClaimBee is a Romania-based legal tech startup on a mission to simplify the process of claiming compensation for disrupted flights under EU Regulation EC 261/2004. By combining automation with a user-friendly platform, ClaimBee empowers airline passengers across Europe to get the compensation they deserve—fast.
At the core of its platform is a seamless boarding pass upload and data extraction process. To ensure speed and reliability, ClaimBee turned to Dynamsoft Barcode Reader SDK.
Challenge
Before Dynamsoft, ClaimBee’s developers relied on a combination of open-source libraries and custom-built barcode solutions to scan boarding passes. However, these tools frequently fell short in terms of:
- Accuracy with different barcode formats
- Speed of scanning
- Reliability under variable lighting or image quality
- Maintenance burden to support new formats
As a result, passengers often had to manually input flight information—an error-prone and frustrating experience that slowed down the claims process and hurt conversion rates.
Solution
ClaimBee integrated Dynamsoft Barcode Reader SDK into their platform to extract flight information directly from passengers’ boarding passes.
"After evaluating several SDKs, we chose Dynamsoft because it offered the best performance out of the box, with minimal setup and excellent support for the variety of barcodes used by airlines," said Andrei, Technical Founder, ClaimBee.
With Dynamsoft, scanned barcodes are decoded quickly and accurately—even under challenging conditions such as:
- Wrinkled or torn physical boarding passes
- Low-light or poor-quality uploads
- Multiple barcodes on a single boarding pass
The decoded data is then integrated directly into ClaimBee’s backend database to auto-fill flight claim forms.
Seamless Implementation
ClaimBee’s development team, though small, was able to move quickly. The integration process took less than one day after receiving the subscription keys.
