How it works

One photo. One tap. Done.

No accounts, no plugins, no waiting on a server-side queue. The scan happens the moment the file lands in the box.

01 / 03 · Capture

Snap or drop a file.

Snap a photo, drop a screenshot, or import a PDF. Multi-page is fine.

02 / 03 · Detect

Find every block.

Our on-device model finds text blocks, tables, handwriting — and orders them naturally.

03 / 03 · Use it

Copy, translate, export.

Copy. Translate. Send to Notion or a sheet. The text was always yours.
