Questions

How accurate is it?

Clear printed text at 300 DPI gets very high accuracy. Handwriting, low-light photos and decorative fonts reduce accuracy.

Are my files uploaded to a server?

No. The tool runs in your browser using your own device. Your file is never sent to us or anyone else — you can even disconnect from the internet after the page loads.

Is it really free?

Yes. There is no account, no watermark and no daily limit.

Is there a file size limit?

There is no fixed limit. Very large files depend on your device memory — a modern phone or laptop handles files of several hundred MB.
