FAQs

How accurate is the OCR?

Clear, high-contrast images with straight, well-lit text work best. Blurry photos, fancy fonts, or heavily skewed text will produce more errors — try cropping tightly around the text for better results.

Which languages are supported?

English. The recognizer is tuned for printed English text, including common punctuation and numbers.

How long does it take?

It depends on the image size and your device. The engine downloads once on first use (a few megabytes), then everything runs locally — larger images take longer to scan.

Is my file uploaded anywhere?

No. This tool runs entirely in your browser — your file is never sent to any server.
