About OCR — Image & PDF to Text

OCR extracts text from photos, screenshots, scanned PDFs, and handwritten notes directly in your browser. Supports 100+ languages, auto-detects deskew and rotation, and can output plain text, Markdown, a structured JSON blob, or a searchable PDF with an invisible text layer. Table mode converts tabular regions into clean CSV you can paste into Excel.
