Quickly Extract and Retrieve Text from Images with the Help of Image to Text AI Tools
Have you had your days of studying from scanned book pages where you could not even copy paste the content to build your assignment answers. You are lucky if you haven’t because I have and those were the days I dread till date.
Why? Because firstly, you have to read from pages with the tiniest words possible. Secondly, those scans could not capture the best quality and were blurry most of the time. Lastly, you could not copy-paste anything from those scans for further research or any other purpose either.
How much worse can it get?
However, it is not the same anymore, thanks to AI for that. There are AI tools that help you convert images into text or retrieve texts from the images.
So now, if someone shares a screenshot with you and you need to retrieve text from it, then that is very much possible.
Hah! Sounds good right? Trust me I was the happiest when I discovered these tools.
Top 7 image to text AI converters you need to watchout for!
