PicToTxt turns pictures of text into editable text you can trust. Drop or paste an image and run OCR privately in your browser. Proofread the result side by side with the original; every character stays editable before you copy or export. Tables come out as clean Markdown or TSV that pastes straight into docs and spreadsheets. Need higher accuracy on tough scans? Switch to cloud recognition with credits. No mystery claims: input beside output, so you can verify the text yourself.
Hey PH! I'm the maker of PicToTxt.
The idea came from my own annoyance: every time I copied text from a screenshot, a scanned page, or a photo of a whiteboard, OCR tools handed me a wall of text I couldn't fully trust — wrong characters, broken tables, no easy way to check against the original.
PicToTxt flips the workflow: the image sits right beside the result, and every character is editable before you copy or export. Plain text, Markdown tables, or TSV for spreadsheets. The default recognition runs entirely in your browser, so your document never leaves your device; cloud recognition is there for tougher scans.
I'd love your feedback — especially on the review-first workflow. What would make this part of your daily toolkit?
