Frequently Asked Questions
Which languages does the OCR support?
Currently, our web-based tool is optimized for English. We are working on adding support for multiple languages including Hindi, Spanish, and French in future updates.
Why is the first run slower?
The first time you use the tool, it downloads the necessary AI models and WebAssembly binaries (approx 10MB) to your browser's cache. Subsequent uses will be much faster.
Does it work with handwritten text?
Our OCR engine is optimized for printed text from documents and screenshots. While it may recognize some clear handwriting, accuracy is significantly higher with printed characters.
