Which languages are supported?
This tool currently recognizes English text. The underlying Tesseract OCR engine supports 100+ languages, but only English training data is loaded here to keep the download small.
Image Tools
Image to Text (OCR)
Extract text from a photo or screenshot. Recognition runs locally in your browser via WebAssembly — your image is never uploaded. The OCR engine (~10-15 MB) downloads from a CDN the first time you use it.

FAQ
Image to Text (OCR) FAQ
Why does the first run take longer?
The first time you run OCR, your browser downloads the Tesseract OCR engine and English language data (roughly 10-15 MB) from a CDN. Your browser caches these files, so later runs start much faster.
Is my image uploaded anywhere?
No. Text recognition runs locally in your browser via WebAssembly. Your image is never sent to TripleW Tools or any other server — only the public OCR engine files are fetched from a CDN.
