AI Deep Read

AI Deep Read turns scans, photos and handwriting into text

Standard conversion needs a text layer. When there isn't one — a scanned contract, a photographed whiteboard, a receipt — AI Deep Read reads the page image and rebuilds headings, tables and lists as Markdown, Word or JSON.

Scanned PDFs
No selectable text? We detect it on upload and offer AI Deep Read before you waste a conversion.
Photos & screenshots
Whiteboards, receipts, table snapshots and screenshots become structured Markdown or JSON.
Pay per page
5 pages free with an account, then credits included in every paid plan. You always see the cost before it runs.
