About Copy Text from Image - OCR by MiniWebtool
That text you need is trapped in an image. Get it out in one click.
A menu in a photo. An error message in a screenshot. A quote in a meme. A paragraph in a scanned PDF. A phone number in a flyer. You can see the text — but you can't select it, copy it, or search it.
Now you can.
TWO WAYS TO GRAB TEXT
1. Right-click any image on any website → "Copy text from this image". Done — the text is recognized and copied to your clipboard.
2. Press Alt+Shift+T and drag a box over ANY part of the screen — a video frame, a PDF page, a diagram, even text a website won't let you select. The text inside the box is yours.
YOUR IMAGES NEVER LEAVE YOUR COMPUTER
This is the part that matters. Most OCR tools upload your image to a server to read it. This extension doesn't: the recognition engine (the open-source Tesseract engine, as WebAssembly) runs entirely inside your browser.
• Safe for contracts, IDs, bills, medical documents, homework
• Works offline once installed
• No account, no tracking, nothing to leak
WHAT IT READS BEST (HONESTLY)
OCR is powerful, but it is not magic — so here is exactly what to expect:
• Excellent: screenshots, on-screen text, PDFs, clean printed documents
• Good: straight-on, well-lit photos of printed text (books, labels, signs)
• Hard: handwriting, decorative fonts, tiny or blurry text, busy backgrounds
Pro tip: for small on-screen text, zoom the page (Ctrl and +) before capturing — bigger pixels, better reading.
TRY BEFORE YOU BUY
The free tier runs the exact same recognition engine as Pro. Pro removes the daily cap and adds batch and languages — it does not change recognition quality. So test it on YOUR images first, and upgrade only when it already works for you.
And if you upgrade and change your mind: 30-day no-questions refund. Email support@miniwebtool.com and it is done.
FREE EVERY DAY
