OCR quality drops when the image is too blurry, low contrast, skewed, compressed, or full of decorative text that is not easy to read.
Straight answers about this tool — privacy, formats, limits, and how processing works.
Extract English text from screenshots, scans, and clear printed photos. ImageToolkit runs optical character recognition on the server (Tesseract English) and returns plain text.
