ScantextAI

ScantextAI converts text inside images into editable, searchable text and lets you save the result as a PDF. Upload an image that contains text, choose the original language, and run the OCR conversion in just a few steps.

The workflow is simple: select a text language from the dropdown, upload or drag-and-drop your image into the scanning area, click Convert, and then download the extracted text as a PDF. ScantextAI supports common image formats such as JPG, PNG, JPEG, BMP, GIF, TIFF, WEBP (and many other image formats), making it suitable for scanned documents, photos, screenshots, and more.

ScantextAI uses Optical Character Recognition (OCR) technology to extract characters from images. It’s designed to improve accuracy and efficiency so you can avoid manual transcription and quickly turn visual content into usable text. You can also edit the extracted text before saving.

ScantextAI is completely free to use. Your uploaded files are not stored on ScantextAI servers; they remain on your device, and access is restricted to you, helping protect your copyright and ownership of your files.
