Extract Text from Image
Need to copy text from an image? This free tool extracts text from any image instantly using OCR technology that runs entirely in your browser. No upload required.
Why This Tool Is Different
Most OCR tools upload your images to their servers. This one doesn't. Your images are processed locally using WebAssembly technology. They never leave your device, making this the most private way to extract text from images online.

The OCR engine processes your images locally. No waiting for uploads.

Accuracy Tips
- Good lighting: Clear, well-lit images produce the best results
- High resolution: Larger images with readable text work better than thumbnails
- Straight alignment: Text that isn't rotated or skewed is recognized more accurately
- Clear contrast: Dark text on light backgrounds (or vice versa) works best
