FAQ
Common questions
The tool uses a client-side library optimized for standard English character recognition. It can recognize numbers, symbols, and basic Latin characters accurately, but may experience errors with handwriting or complex non-Latin scripts (such as Arabic or Chinese).
The Optical Character Recognition (OCR) engine runs locally using your device web browser resources. When you upload a screenshot, the system scans the pixel patterns to match them with letter shapes, converting them to plain text. Your files are processed entirely in memory on your device.
OCR accuracy depends heavily on screenshot resolution, contrast, and layout complexity. Blurry text, low-contrast colors, or multiple columns of text can cause the scanner to misread character shapes. It is recommended to review outputs for critical data.
No, the text extraction is processed client-side. None of your screenshots, document data, or extracted texts are sent to remote databases or saved on external servers, keeping your data private.
