OCR + Vision
Convert image-based PDFs into structured Markdown using OCR and layout-aware extraction. When regular conversion fails, AI Vision extracts text from scans, photos, and legacy documents.
Drop files or paste a link to a file
Click to choose, drag and drop, or paste a file URL
Scanned contracts, invoices, and forms that need to be searchable
Legacy PDFs that need to be ingested into LLM workflows
When copy/paste gives you nothing, OCR is the answer
A scanned PDF often contains no text layer—it's just images. So conversion requires:
OCR to extract characters from images
Identify columns, headings, tables
Assemble text in readable sequence
A clear breakdown of the OCR + vision extraction process
Convert each PDF page into a high-resolution image for processing
Detect text and confidence scores per region using AI vision models
Identify blocks: titles, paragraphs, lists, tables, and captions
Handle multi-column pages and complex layouts correctly
Convert detected blocks into clean Markdown output
Choose the format that fits your workflow
Clean .md file ready for use
Includes bounding boxes and confidence scores
Separate output per page for chunking workflows
Features that boost accuracy and trust

Automatic correction for tilted or noisy scans
Flag low-confidence regions for manual review
Improve accuracy by specifying document language
No. Regular PDF conversion extracts embedded text. This tool is for scanned/image PDFs where OCR is required because there's no text layer to extract.
Yes. Use our API with async/batch workflows for high-volume processing.
Our AI Vision uses advanced models that achieve 95%+ accuracy on most documents. Complex layouts, handwriting, and low-quality scans may have lower accuracy—confidence scores help you identify these cases.
AI Vision extracts text from documents that regular converters can't handle.
