PNG, JPG, WebP, BMP or GIF. Sharp, upright text gives the best results.

First run downloads the OCR engine (โ‰ˆ 4 MB) and the language data (English โ‰ˆ 3 MB) once; both are cached for next time. Backend: WebAssembly.

Powered by Tesseract.js 5 (Apache-2.0), the Tesseract OCR engine compiled to WebAssembly. The engine is served from kilaz.com; language data is downloaded once from the jsDelivr CDN and cached in your browser. Confidence is Tesseract's own estimate (0โ€“100) averaged over the page.
