Extract Text from Images and Photos

Ready

Convert text in JPG, PNG or WebP pictures into text with OCR. Upload the photo, select the text language and compare the extracted words with the original.

All tools are free to use. File size and processing limits may vary by tool.

How to use

Upload a clear image up to 10 MB and 12 MP, select the language of the text and start. Review recognition errors before copying or downloading. Images are processed on our server and expire after 60 minutes.

How are files processed?

Browser tools keep files on your device. Advanced document tools upload files for temporary server processing; the tool shows this before upload. Web lookups send queries to the server and public lookup services.
