Greetings, hunters! This is Jason, an independent macOS developer. Having released a whole bunch of macOS tools including Klib, iPic, iPaste, iHosts and iTimer, I'm really excited today to announce a new member to the iTools family: iText. iText is an OCR tool that makes recognizing texts easier than ever. Capture any screen area with text in it, and a split second later it's done. Use it to extract texts from all kinds of sources: PDF, documents in paper, pages in a book or images of any other kind. Utilizing Google's ever powerful OCR service, iText supports 50+ languages, and achieves amazingly high recognition accuracy.

As far as I can tell, the accuracy rate is much better than ABBYY's so-called professional OCR tools. It's an awesome deal at $4.99/year now.

Pros:

Lighting Fast, Simple and intuitive to use, Impressive accuracy

Cons:

Could use a better menu bar icon though…

Okay this is ridiculously amazing.
