NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 8, 2003

Captiva Software Corp. (Nasdaq: CPTV), a leading provider of input management solutions, today announced the availability of InputAccel Express(TM), a new document capture solution designed for low- and mid-volume departmental or ad-hoc users who need to quickly and easily transform paper documents into more useable electronic content.

Based on the award-winning capabilities of Captiva's InputAccel(R), InputAccel Express offers an array of easy to use best-practice features that allow customers to get up-and-running in the quickest possible time, including a flexible Process Wizard for creating capture flows. InputAccel Express is being offered exclusively through value added resellers (VARs) at suggested list prices starting as low as $1,000 for 250 pages a day.

"By offering InputAccel Express, we're responding to the needs and requests of our end users and VARs for a robust, yet more streamlined version of InputAccel for low- and mid-volume document capture requirements," said Jim Vickers, Captiva's chief marketing officer. "We believe this market is substantial, and InputAccel Express allows us entry into this lucrative space, enables us to expand our solution offering footprint in the market and complements our existing product line."

Captiva also announced the signing of its first distributor for InputAccel Express. Headway Technology Group, the UK's premier document imaging distributor and a member company of the ACAL Group, one of Europe's largest technology products and services distributors, has agreed to serve as the exclusive distributor of InputAccel Express for all of Europe.

"We're pleased to add InputAccel Express to our solution offerings.
