This tool helps you automatically read text and numbers from images, a process called Optical Character Recognition (OCR). You provide images containing characters, and it outputs the identified characters, helping to convert scanned documents or pictures into editable text. It's designed for anyone who needs to extract specific text from images, especially if you have a collection of similar images where you want to automate character recognition.

532 stars. No commits in the last 6 months.

Use this if you need a straightforward way to extract individual characters or digits from images, particularly if you're comfortable providing examples to 'teach' the system what each character looks like.

Not ideal if you need to read complex document layouts, full paragraphs, or handwriting without prior training examples for each specific character.
