Image to Text (OCR) — frequently asked questions

Does it work on handwriting?+

Poorly — OCR is built for printed/typed text. Clear printed text at a decent resolution works best.

Is my image uploaded?+

No. Recognition uses an on-device WASM model. The first run downloads the language data (a few MB), then it's cached.

Which languages?+

14: English, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Dutch, Russian, Arabic, Hindi, Japanese, Korean, and Simplified/Traditional Chinese.

Laddar ni upp mina filer till en server?+

Nej — alla verktyg här bearbetar dina filer helt på din enhet, och inget laddas upp till en server. Det enda undantaget är AI-verktygen, som skickar den extraherade texten (inte filen) till Claude för att göra sitt jobb.

Finns det en filstorleksgräns?+

Vi sätter ingen konstgjord gräns, men eftersom bearbetningen sker i din webbläsare begränsas mycket stora filer (500+ MB eller 1 000+ sidor) av din enhets minne, inte av oss.
