What is it for?

Image to text with OCR turns screenshots, scanned invoices, photographed notes, or signs into editable text without retyping. Recognition runs in your browser with no image upload to servers.

Students, freelancers, and support teams use it to digitize receipts, pull data from screen captures, or transcribe printed documents before pasting into Word, Excel, or a document manager.

Local OCR keeps sensitive documents private—contracts, IDs, or medical records—while giving you searchable, translatable, archivable text.
