Offline OCR in your browser with layout-aware document recognition
Click the toolbar icon, draw a rectangle over any part of the active window, and the text inside is recognised immediately.
A Tesseract.js engine recognises plain text in over 100 languages with automatic text orientation and script detection.
Switch to IBM Granite-Docling to retain headings, lists, bold and italics, tables and mathematical equations instead of losing layout.
