2. Adjust the language settings (defaults to English).

3. Click "Extract Text" and watch the progress bar.

Pro tips

  • For best results, crop out unnecessary margins or background elements before running OCR.
  • Ensure the text is rotated upright for the optical character recognition model to align correctly.

Frequently asked questions

Is my uploaded image secure and private?

Yes! The OCR extraction runs entirely inside your browser using Tesseract.js. No images or text are uploaded to any server, keeping your sensitive documents completely private.

What image formats are supported?

We support all standard web formats, including PNG, JPEG, WebP, BMP, and GIF.

How accurate is the text extraction?

The accuracy depends on the quality, contrast, and alignment of the text within the image. Clear black-on-white printed text yields near 100% accuracy, while handwriting or low-contrast text might require manual edits.
