Image Text to Text

Use Image Text to Text – image to text converter for Chrome, offering seamless OCR online to pull any info from your screen!

Image Text to Text is an image to text OCR for Chrome that turns the words on your screen into editable text. Select an area on a web page, and everything inside it is recognized right on your computer and copied to the clipboard. No upload and no waiting for a server: the extension reads screenshots, photos and scanned pages in a few seconds. Use it whenever you need to copy text from image files, slides, charts, memes or a video paused on a frame. Lines stay in reading order, so a paragraph comes back as a paragraph, ready to paste into a document, a chat or a search box. 🚀 How to use the extension 1️⃣ Click the extension icon: the side panel opens next to the page. 2️⃣ Press Select area on the page and drag a rectangle over the text. 3️⃣ The recognized text appears in the panel and is already copied. Just paste it. 📌 More ways to grab text ➤ Choose image: pick a picture saved on your computer. ➤ Drag and drop a picture into the panel. ➤ Paste a screenshot with Ctrl+V to turn a screenshot to text. ➤ Change the text language under the preview, and the same picture is read again. ✨ Key features • Optical character recognition runs locally with modern neural network models, so your pictures stay with you. • 32 recognition languages, including English, Spanish, French, German, Portuguese, Russian, Ukrainian, Arabic, Hindi, Japanese, Korean and Chinese. • The language is chosen automatically from the page and from the recognized text, and you can always pick it by hand. • The text goes to the clipboard at once, and the Copy button is there for later. • Optional translation of the result with the translator built into Chrome, also on your device. • The interface speaks 52 languages. 🖥️ Why a side panel The panel stays open while you browse, so you can read one picture after another without new tabs. There is no account to create and no website to upload to. After the first model download, recognition does not even need the internet. 🔒 Private by design - The extension does not send your images anywhere: image to text conversion happens in the browser. - The first time you use a language, its recognition model (8 to 17 MB) is downloaded once and kept in the browser. - If a result is wrong, you can send us that one image with the Wrong result link. Only when you click it. - The extension reaches a page only when you select an area on it. 💡 Who finds it useful ▸ Students copy quotes from lecture slides, scanned books and course materials. ▸ Office workers extract text from attachments, invoices and screenshots of tables. ▸ Developers grab error messages from screenshots and paste them into a search. ▸ Social media managers turn a photo to text when a post exists only as a picture. ▸ Anyone who wants a light OCR tool for menus, posters, recipes and infographics. ⚙️ Plans The extension is free in most countries, with no daily limit. In some countries you get 10 free recognitions, and then a plan unlocks it: 2.99 USD per month, 14.99 USD per year or 24.99 USD once. Recognition always runs on your computer; the plan only unlocks it. ❓ FAQ Is this image to text tool free? In most countries, yes. In some countries the first 10 recognitions are free, and then you choose a plan. Does it upload my pictures? No. Everything is read inside your browser. An image is sent to us only if you report a wrong result or agree to share occasional samples. How accurate is the recognition? Clean screenshots and photos of printed text come out almost exactly. Very small or blurry letters may need a quick fix. If the language under the preview is wrong, pick the right one and the picture is read again. Does it keep my recognized text? No. The result stays in the panel until the next one, and the extension saves no history. Which languages can it read? 32 languages for recognition. Translation of the result covers even more languages, through Chrome itself. Can I use pictures from my computer, not only from web pages? Yes. Choose an image, drop it into the panel or paste it, and it works the same way. Where does it not work? Chrome does not let any extension read its own pages, such as settings or the Chrome Web Store. On ordinary websites it works everywhere. 👉 Add the extension to Chrome and turn any image to text in one click: select, recognize, paste.
