FreeOCR.AI
FreeOCR.AI · Songjiang District, Shanghai, China
What it is
FreeOCR.AI extracts editable text from photos, scans, and screenshots, and also offers table and field extraction. It recognizes printed text, clear handwriting, formulas, tables, and mixed layouts in more than 100 languages without manual language selection. Results can be copied or downloaded as TXT, Markdown, or editable Word documents; table results can be exported as XLSX or CSV, while user-defined fields can be downloaded as CSV or Excel. Free online use processes one image at a time, with 10 free images per day shared by OCR, table, and field extraction. New accounts receive 50 bonus credits. The desktop app for Windows x64, Windows ARM64, and macOS can batch-process images, PDFs, or folders, saving results locally outside cloud history. Pro adds batch workflows, saved history, ad-free processing, and ZIP downloads. Monthly Pro costs $10 a month, and Yearly Pro costs $80 a year. API endpoints support image-to-text, table OCR, and structured extraction as a separate paid, usage-based service. Standard pages do not save uploads or results to account history, though temporary technical handling and AI service providers may be involved.
