Supports PNG, JPG, JPEG, WebPHow the Image Text Extractor Works
Our Image Text Extractor uses the powerful Tesseract.js OCR engine to recognize and extract text from images entirely within your browser. Whether you need to pull text from a screenshot, scan a photographed document, or extract captions from an image, this tool handles it all without ever uploading your files.
Simply drag and drop or browse to select an image in PNG, JPEG, or WebP format. The Tesseract.js engine loads directly into your browser tab, analyzes the image pixels, and returns the recognized text with a confidence score. A live progress bar shows you exactly how far along the recognition process is.
Once extraction is complete, the results are displayed in a clean side-by-side layout: your original image on the left and the extracted text on the right. You can copy the text to your clipboard with one click, or clear the workspace to process another image. Because every operation happens locally, your sensitive documents, screenshots, and personal photos remain completely private — no cloud storage, no server logs, no data transmission.
