Everything runs in your browser (Tesseract OCR engine) — your images are never uploaded. Copy the text, download as .txt, or send it to our Translator or Grammar Checker.

Yes — select Urdu (or Urdu + English for mixed pages). Printed Nastaliq/Naskh text works best; handwriting accuracy is limited.
No. The OCR engine runs inside your browser; the image never leaves your device.
Use a straight, high-resolution, well-lit image with dark text on a light background. Crop out unrelated parts before extracting.
