Supports PNG, JPG, WebP
Finlytic Pro's free OCR (Optical Character Recognition) tool extracts editable text from images, screenshots, scanned documents, and photo-based PDFs — all processed locally in your browser. No files are uploaded to servers, no API calls are made to external services, and your documents remain entirely private.
Optical Character Recognition (OCR) is a technology that analyzes the visual patterns of characters in an image and converts them into machine-readable text. Modern OCR engines use neural networks trained on millions of text samples to recognize characters across different fonts, sizes, styles, and even handwritten scripts. Our tool uses Tesseract.js — the industry-standard OCR engine originally developed by HP and maintained by Google — running entirely in your browser via WebAssembly.
In a business context, OCR dramatically reduces manual data entry. Instead of typing information from a scanned invoice into your accounting system, you can extract the text in seconds and copy-paste it. HR professionals extract candidate details from scanned resumes. Lawyers digitize printed case documents for searchable archives. Accountants extract line items from scanned receipts for expense reports. Medical staff convert printed lab reports into electronic health records.
Our OCR engine supports major global languages including English, Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, Bengali, Marathi (Indian regional scripts), Spanish, French, German, Portuguese, Arabic, Chinese (Simplified and Traditional), Japanese, and Korean. For best results, ensure the image is well-lit, in focus, and uses a standard font.

Wait for Processing
Our OCR engine analyzes the image locally in your browser. Processing takes 2–10 seconds depending on the image size and complexity.
Copy the Extracted Text
Review the extracted text in the output box. Click "Copy to Clipboard" to paste it into any document, spreadsheet, or application.
No. Our OCR engine (Tesseract.js via WebAssembly) runs entirely in your browser. Your images are processed locally and never transmitted to any external server or API.
For clearly printed, high-contrast text in English, accuracy typically exceeds 95%. Accuracy varies for handwritten text, decorative fonts, low-resolution scans, or complex layouts. For critical data, always verify the extracted text against the source.
Our tool can recognize clearly written handwritten text, but accuracy is lower than for printed text. Very casual handwriting or personal styles may not be recognized reliably.
If your PDF contains scanned images (not selectable text), you can take a screenshot of the pages and process them through our OCR tool. For PDFs with embedded text, you can simply select and copy the text directly in your PDF reader.
