OCR - Image Reader

Staring at an image and needing the text inside it is a frustratingly common problem — and manually retyping everything is a waste of time no one can afford. OCR - Image Reader is a Chrome extension that extracts text from images quickly and accurately, right in your browser. No uploads to external servers, no waiting — it uses the Tesseract library locally for secure, efficient processing.

It goes beyond basic OCR too, with a built-in Chatbot Connector for interacting with language models like ChatGPT and Copilot using your extracted text, plus text-to-speech with customizable voices. Whether you're a student pulling quotes from textbook images, a researcher processing documents, or a professional working with visual content, this extension turns images into editable, actionable text in seconds.
