From input to finished work

How to use the screenshot to text.

  1. Paste, drop, or select a screenshot with clear printed English text. Crop away unrelated interface elements when they are not part of the passage you need.
  2. Watch recognition progress, then compare the editable result with the source. Correct names, numbers, punctuation, and any missed lines.
  3. Copy the corrected text or download a TXT file to use in your draft or review notes.

Illustrative example

A small task, finished.

Start with: A screenshot of a short paragraph you want to quote in a review comment.

Leave with: Editable plain text that you can check against the screenshot. Correct a misread product name before copying it into the comment.

Before you rely on the result

  • Recognition can miss tiny, blurred, decorative, or low-contrast text. Handwriting, complex layouts, emoji, and images without text may produce unreliable results; check the original.
  • First use needs internet access to download recognition files. Recognition runs in your browser and the image is not uploaded. Images are limited to 20 MB and 40 megapixels.

Keep making

A good next step.

These tools work in your browser. Your images, drafts and plans stay on your device. Download your work before closing the tab.

Work well together

Give the work a clear path.

Prepare the draft, check its destination, and give a reviewer the context they need. Keep the caption, image, decision, and deadline together when you move into your team’s workflow.
