Unlimited OCR — free AI OCR for images, PDFs, and tables

Unlimited OCR turns photos, scans, and multi-page PDFs into clean, editable text. Drop in a file and it comes back as structured Markdown — headings still headings, lists still lists, tables still tables, in the original reading order.

It is free to use with no account and no setup. There is no language to pick and no settings page to work through: upload, wait a moment, copy or download the result.

Handwritten notes read in the same pass as printed text. Mixed-language pages work as they are. Tables come back as rows you can paste straight into a spreadsheet, and formulas stay as LaTeX, ready for Overleaf, Obsidian, or Notion. Export as Markdown when structure matters, or plain TXT when you just need the words.

Students digitize scanned papers and lecture slides. Finance and operations teams pull line items off receipts and invoices. Legal and admin teams make scanned contracts searchable, so Ctrl+F finally works. Developers feed clean, structured text into RAG pipelines and agents.

Everything runs in your browser — nothing to install, nothing to update. Files are encrypted in transit and processed automatically.
