TWAIN Direct Certification Program

The Standard for Trust, Compatibility, and Market Advantage

The TWAIN Certification Program provides the industry’s only independent, third-party validation for products built on both the time-tested TWAIN Classic (up to v2.5) and the modern TWAIN Direct standards. Certification ensures your solution isn’t just compliant—it’s secure, interoperable, and optimized for both legacy environments and today’s cloud-driven workflows.

Whether you are an OEM, ISV, or Enterprise IT leader, certification helps you streamline development, slash support costs, and future-proof your technology investment.

Why Certification Matters

• Build Trust Instantly – Demonstrate an unwavering commitment to security, reliability, and global open standards.

• Accelerate Adoption – Certified solutions integrate seamlessly across desktop and cloud, reducing the "technology burden" on your customers.

• Become the Gold Standard – Stand out in a crowded market with a recognized seal of approval backed by rigorous independent testing.
