Extract Text from PDF & Images using AI — 100% Local & Private (5 Models, 10+ Languages)

This is not a basic OCR tool. This is a multi-model, browser-native AI text extraction platform that puts professional-grade technology directly in your hands — for free, completely offline, zero server uploads, zero data collection, nothing ever leaves your device.

Two Powerful AI Engines

Standard Mode (Tesseract LSTM) — The world's most trusted open-source OCR engine, running as WebAssembly directly in your browser. Choose High Accuracy (~20MB/language) or Lightweight (~4MB/language). Supports English, Hindi, Marathi, Bengali, Gujarati, Punjabi, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, and Malayalam with Unicode-perfect output.

Vision AI Mode (Microsoft TrOCR) — A full Transformer-based neural network running in your browser. Three model variants:

• TrOCR Small (~340MB): Fast, good for clean printed English
• TrOCR Base (~890MB): Highly accurate for complex fonts, old books, noisy scans
• TrOCR Handwritten (~890MB): Specifically trained to recognize handwritten English text

What Makes This Different

• 100% Client-Side — Your Files Never Leave Your Device: All AI runs in a Web Worker inside your browser. Verifiable via browser Network tab — zero outbound file transfers.
• Transparent Downloads: The tool shows exactly what is downloading, how many MB, and when it's cached. Every model download is a one-time event.
• Browser Cache Intelligence: The tool detects if the AI model is already cached and tells you instantly. No re-downloads after first use.
• WebGPU Acceleration: On Chrome 113+ and Edge 113+, the Vision AI models use your GPU for dramatically faster inference.
• Safe Navigation: Press "Stop" at any time to cancel extraction safely. All heavy processing runs in a separate thread — it cannot freeze your browser or block navigation.
• Download Your Text: After extraction, save as Plain Text (.txt), Markdown (.md), Word DOCX (.docx), or RTF (.rtf) — your text, your formats.

Unmatched Indian Language Support

Our Tesseract LSTM "High Accuracy" model is the gold standard for Indic OCR. It handles:

• Hindi (हिंदी) — Mangal/Unicode, Devanagari script
• Marathi (मराठी), Bengali (বাংলা), Gujarati (ગુજરાતી)
• Punjabi (ਪੰਜਾਬੀ), Tamil (தமிழ்), Telugu (తెలుగు)
• Kannada (ಕನ್ನಡ), Malayalam (മലയാളം)

Note: For Indian language text, always use Standard (Tesseract) mode. The TrOCR Vision AI models were trained on English only and will not produce accurate results for Indic scripts.
