"Real-time canvas rendering and local compression algorithms run directly on the browser's GPU context. This eliminates server round-trips and guarantees that image pixel structures and ICC color profile metadata are preserved with zero server-side exposure."
โ€” Marcus Vane, Director of Visual Information Science, Open Graphics Initiative

Convert Image Scans to Editable Text

Extracting text manually from screenshots, PDF pages, or invoice scans is tedious. TinyWeb's Image to Text OCR tool parses text characters from images and converts them into editable plain text in seconds, speeding up document indexing and notes collection.

Secure Client-Side OCR Engine

Most OCR tools require uploading files to backend servers, creating security risks for bank statements and personal notes. TinyWeb runs the Tesseract OCR library directly in your browser. The image is parsed locally in the active tab, protecting your data from server breaches and leaks.

Multi-Language OCR Recognition

Our extraction engine supports multiple languages, allowing you to parse books, receipts, and documents accurately while preserving spaces and structural layouts.
