SnapText — Image & Screenshot to Text (OCR)

Extract text from any image or screen area — 100% on your device. No upload, no account. Just drag, paste, capture & copy.

Turn any image or screenshot into editable text — instantly, and 100% on your own device. SnapText is a fast, private OCR (optical character recognition) tool. Drag in an image, paste a screenshot, pick a file, or capture any area of your screen — SnapText reads the text and hands it to you ready to copy. Nothing is ever uploaded. No account. No sign-up. No cloud. ★ WHY SNAPTEXT Most "image to text" extensions send your screenshots to a server and nag you to buy a membership. SnapText does the opposite: the entire OCR engine runs locally in your browser, so your images never leave your computer. It even works fully offline after install. ★ WHAT YOU CAN DO • Image to text — drag & drop or pick any image and extract the text • Screenshot to text — paste a screenshot straight from your clipboard (Ctrl/⌘+V) • Capture a screen area — drag a box over anything on the page and get the text in a new tab • Copy text from images, scans, receipts, documents and slides • Clean, readable output — including bullet-point lists ★ HOW IT WORKS 1. Click the SnapText icon (or drop / paste an image into it) 2. To grab part of the screen, choose "Capture a screen area" and drag a selection 3. The recognised text appears with a confidence score — copy it with one click ★ PRIVATE BY DESIGN • 100% on-device OCR — images are never uploaded • No account, no login, no tracking • Works offline after install • Minimal permissions — no access to your browsing ★ GREAT FOR Copying text from screenshots, scanned PDFs and photos, grabbing a quote from a video frame or slide, pulling numbers off a receipt, digitising notes, and any time selecting text just isn't possible.
