OCR on your own device

Text recognition uses the open-source Tesseract engine compiled to run in the browser. The language model is loaded from this site the first time, which can take a few seconds; after that it works faster.

Results are best with sharp, well-lit images of printed text. Crop away the background, keep lines straight and avoid glare. Handwriting and decorative fonts are much harder to read.

Frequently asked questions

Which languages are supported?

English and Korean, separately or together.

Can it read handwriting?

Only clear block letters, and not reliably.

Is my image uploaded?

No. Recognition runs entirely in your browser.
