About ICU OCR: Intelligent Capture Utility

Whether it’s a screenshot, diagram, scanned page, or even a meme, ICU OCR extracts text/ ideas and magically sends them to your favorite app — if you so choose. Requests for new integrations are most welcome! ✨ Why ICU OCR? Most OCR tools stop at raw text. ICU OCR is built for real workflows: it combines modern OCR with top AI models (OpenAI, Gemini, Claude, Grok) to not only read text, but also understand, format, and route it to your favorite apps. 🚀 KEY FEATURES ▪ FREE FOREVER: Plug in your own LLM API keys and you're good to go! ▪ Multiple Capture Methods: Right-click any image, drag & drop with Alt/Option, or paste from your clipboard. ICU OCR adapts to your flow. ▪ Drop Zones: Configure reusable workflows with custom prompts. Extract as JSON, summarize, translate, generate alt-text, or just keep it verbatim. ▪ Integrations: Send results straight to Workflowy or Notion. More apps are on the way. ▪ Choose Your AI: Switch between OpenAI (gpt-4o-mini), Google Gemini, Anthropic Claude, and Grok Vision. ▪ History & Clipboard Manager: Every capture is logged with source, provider, and timestamp. Copy back, manage, or clear history in one click. ▪ Privacy First: All keys and history are stored locally on your device. Nothing is ever tracked or shared. 🤗 WHO IT’S FOR ▪ Researchers and students extracting tables, references, and notes. ▪ Knowledge workers capturing diagrams, slides, etc. into structured outlines. ▪ Productivity geeks who live in Workflowy, Notion, or both. ▪ Anyone tired of copy-paste gymnastics when moving text from images.
