How OCR Works

Upload your scanned PDF or image document.

Our AI engine analyzes each page for text patterns and structure.

Optical Character Recognition converts pixels into editable text.

Preview the results and download your editable .txt file.

Recognizes text from scans, photos, and non-selectable PDFs effortlessly.

All AI recognition happens in your browser. Your sensitive data never leaves your device.

Instantly copy text or download a clean text file with one click.

What languages are supported?

Our current implementation is optimized for English, but it can recognize most Latin-based characters with high accuracy.

Does it handle handwriting?

OCR works best with printed text. While it can detect some clear handwriting, specialized handwriting AI is usually required for messy scripts.

Is there a page limit?

There's no hard limit, but large documents (50+ pages) may take several minutes as all processing is done locally on your CPU.
