About the toolkit

Free OCR for people who just need the text out.

15 tools in the browser. No account, no watermark, and the file is gone 1 hour after you convert.

15

Converters for printed text in images, PDFs and scans.

0

Accounts. Nothing to create, nothing to remember.

1 hour

Then result access expires. See Privacy for retention details.

WHO IT IS FOR

If you have a scan and need the words, this is the site.

Not a platform. Not a workspace. A set of converters for anyone who got a photo, a PDF, or a stack of pages and just wants them typed.

01

Students and researchers

Lecture slides, papers, archive scans. Get them into notes you can search instead of a folder of photos.

02

Writers and journalists

Clippings, filed PDFs, a photo of a document. Out comes copy you can edit, not another image.

03

Small offices

Forms, contracts, a printed letter. Into plain text, without buying a desktop suite for one job.

Bank statements, ledgers, and invoice books live on financeocrtools.com — same no-account rule, a different job.

WHY THERE IS NO SIGN-UP

An account would only exist to store files we do not keep.

The job is one file, one download. A login would sit between you and the text. There is no email gate, no trial, and no sign-up-to-download screen.

No email to start

Open a tool and drop the file. We never ask who you are.

Nothing to manage later

There is no profile, no history, no cloud folder of old conversions.

The download is the end

Copy the text or download a TXT file. Keep your own copy before the result expires.

WHAT HAPPENS TO YOUR FILE

Upload. Convert. Download. Then it is deleted.

Results expire 1 hour after conversion. See Privacy for input expiry and cleanup.

1

You drop a file

A photo, a scan, or a PDF. It only leaves your machine when you convert.

2

The tool reads it

Printed English in images and PDFs comes out as plain text — TXT. Review the result before using it.

3

You download the copy

That download is yours. We do not keep a second copy in an account.

4

Results expire

Result access expires after 1 hour. Cleanup follows automatically.

Nothing is used to train a model. Read the full retention rule on the privacy page.

How we handle files
THE SIBLING SITE

Everyday files here. Bank statements next door.

Two sites, one rule: no account. We split them so a receipt or a lecture slide does not sit in the same toolkit as a bank statement.

onlineocrtools.com

Text from images and PDFs.

15 tools that pull printed text out of a scan, photo, or PDF. Built for the file you have in front of you right now.

The sibling product for statements, invoices, and books. Same no-account rule. A narrower job.

Open financeocrtools.com

Ready when the file is.

No account. No watermark. Deleted after you convert.
