FAQ

Good to know.

What is online OCR?
Online OCR (optical character recognition) is a process that reads printed characters inside an image and converts them into editable, selectable text. Pixasur runs the OCR in your browser with Tesseract, so no image is uploaded to a server.
Is this OCR tool free to use?
Yes, the Pixasur online OCR tool is free with no signup, no subscription, and no watermark on the output. You can run OCR on as many images as you want.
Is online OCR private and secure?
Yes, this online OCR is private because it runs entirely on your device and never uploads your images. The recognition model is downloaded to your browser once and does the work locally.
How accurate is the online OCR?
The online OCR is most accurate on clear, high-contrast printed or digital text, where recognition commonly exceeds 95 percent. Accuracy falls on blurry, low-resolution, skewed, or handwritten text, so a sharp scan or screenshot gives the best result.
Can online OCR read more than one language?
Yes, the Pixasur online OCR reads English and Hindi out of the box and loads more languages like Spanish, French, German, Arabic, and Chinese on demand. You select the language before running so the matching model is used.
