Retyping printed text from screenshots, photos and scanned pages.
Smart / Local Tools
Extract text from an image.
Choose a photo or screenshot, read printed text locally in your browser, then copy or download the result.
Tip: rotate sideways screenshots first. OCR is strongest on clear printed text; tiny text, handwriting and decorative fonts can need correction.
Private by design: the image and OCR model run in this browser tab. The first use may download the model.
Useful to know
Four things worth knowing.
Neat maths can still look wrong.
OCR can misread small type, decorative fonts, handwriting, names, prices and serial numbers.
Check it where people see it.
Verify anything important against the source image before you paste or send it.
Optical judgement still matters.
Sharper, straighter and higher-contrast source images usually produce cleaner text.
