OwlOCR offers simple optical character recognition of text in PDF files, images or on-screen and converts that to plain text. All conversion is done securely on-device - none of the data are sent to third-party services in the cloud as most applications do.
Grab any text on the screen, convert images or scans to searchable PDFs, open QR-coded URLs with a few clicks, and for the first time in OwlOCR 5 — use a command line interface to integrate OwlOCR into other process workflows!
