Image to Markdown for ChatGPT & Claude
Extract text from screenshots, photos, scanned documents, and handwritten notes. Convert images to clean Markdown that AI can read and analyze.
Why Extract Image Text for AI?
Images contain valuable information that AI can't read directly. When you upload a screenshot or photo to ChatGPT, it can see the image—but extracting text accurately is hit or miss. The AI might misread characters, miss entire sections, or hallucinate content that isn't there.
Converting images to Markdown first solves this. Our AI-powered OCR extracts text with high accuracy, preserves document structure, and outputs clean Markdown that ChatGPT and Claude understand perfectly.
