PDF Workspace
Make scanned pages searchable and selectable, not just viewable.
No files yet — add PDF, JPG, PNG, TIFF files on the left and they’ll appear here.
A scanned PDF is just a picture of text until OCR reads it. Our OCR engine recognizes text on scanned pages and images, turning them into searchable, selectable, copyable documents — while keeping the original page's visual layout untouched underneath. Run it on an old scanned contract, a photographed whiteboard, or a stack of receipts, and get back a file you can actually search and quote from, at accuracy that holds up even on lower-quality scans.

| Printed text in English or Hindi | High accuracy, even on skewed or noisy scans |
