How accurate is the OCR?

Accuracy depends on image quality, text clarity, and font. Printed text in clear images works best. Handwriting and low-contrast text are harder.

What languages are supported?

English by default. Tesseract.js supports 100+ languages with additional trained data files.

Is my image uploaded?

No. OCR runs entirely in your browser using WebAssembly. The image never leaves your device.

Why does it download on first use?

The OCR engine (~2MB) is fetched from a CDN on first use so the tool stays fast to load. It's cached afterwards.
