Frequently Asked Questions

How does Image to Text (OCR) work?
Optical Character Recognition (OCR) analyzes the visual pixels of an image, detects typographic letter shapes, baseline alignments, and character spaces, and converts them into standardized digital Unicode text.
Are my uploaded documents and images private?
Yes, 100%. All image parsing and OCR computations take place locally inside your browser via WebAssembly. No files, images, or extracted text are ever transmitted to any backend server.
What image formats are supported?
You can upload JPG/JPEG, PNG, and WebP images, as well as digital screenshots from computers and mobile devices.
How can I get the best OCR accuracy?
For best results, ensure your image has good lighting, high contrast between text and background, minimal blur or compression artifacts, and is oriented upright. Selecting the correct language also significantly boosts accuracy.
