Online OCR that stays offline
“Online OCR” usually means uploading to a server. Format Convertly’s OCR pages load in the browser and run Tesseract.js so images never need to leave the device.
Choose the right landing page
Use OCR for a general entry point, Image to Text for mixed rasters, or JPG/PNG/scanned-image landings when you care about format-specific SEO intent.
What you can do with the text
Copy into translators, notes, or tickets, or download a .txt file for archives — still produced locally.
