About this conversion
Upload an image, photo, scan, or screenshot and open "Details → Extract Text" to run on-device OCR (Tesseract as WebAssembly in your browser). Copy the text out — the image never leaves your device.
Frequently asked questions
How do I extract text from an image?
Upload or drag in any image, then open the "Extract Text" tab in the details panel. The on-device OCR engine recognizes text and lets you copy it with one click.
What image formats are supported for OCR?
JPG, JPEG, PNG, WebP, BMP, and screenshot captures are all supported. OCR runs entirely on your device with no uploads.
How accurate is the text extraction?
It works well on clear, reasonably high-contrast text -- printed documents, screenshots, signs. Handwriting, low-resolution scans, or heavily stylized fonts will be less reliable, as with any OCR engine.
Does this work offline?
Yes, once the OCR engine has loaded once, it’s cached by your browser and will keep working without an internet connection.
Is my image or the extracted text uploaded anywhere?
No. OCR runs entirely on your device via WebAssembly. Nothing about the image or the recognized text is ever transmitted.
