Meet SenseOCR: turn scans into structured text

The chore we all know

A scanned contract. A photo of a whiteboard. A 40-page PDF of a research paper. You only need the text — so you retype it, character by character, and lose an afternoon.

SenseOCR exists to delete that chore. Upload a document, get back clean, structured text you can actually use.

What SenseOCR does

SenseOCR is an online document recognition service. Give it a PDF or an image — or just a URL — and it returns the content as Markdown, HTML, plain text, or JSON.

It does not stop at plain paragraphs:

• Tables come back as tables, not a jumble of numbers
• Formulas are preserved as math, not garbled symbols
• Charts and figures are recognized and described
• Layout is understood, so reading order is preserved

Built for real workloads

• Batch uploads — drop in many files at once, track the whole set as one job, and export everything as a single zip
• Live progress — see pages processed as they finish, even on long documents
• Multiple inputs — upload a file or hand over a remote URL
• Fast pipeline — recognition is queued and processed asynchronously, so the site stays responsive
• Private by default — files live in private object storage and are streamed back through the app; nothing is served from a public bucket

Start for free

• No account needed to try — run your first document anonymously
• A free daily allowance for registered users
• Credit packs when you need to process more

Sign up, drop in a file, and watch the text come back. No install, no command line, no setup.

Who it is for

• Researchers digitizing papers and citations
• Developers who need structured data out of invoices, receipts, and forms
• Students turning lecture photos and slides into searchable notes
• Anyone who is tired of retyping documents by hand
