How this service works
Extract text from an image (photo, screenshot, or scanned document) via OCR.
Output
Returns the extracted text content recognized from the submitted image file, converted from visual/binary input into machine-readable plain text.
Example use cases
Digitize scanned receipt for expenses
“I have a photo of a paper receipt from my business trip — can you read all the text off it so I can log the expense details?”
Extract text from screenshot for editing
“I took a screenshot of an article I can't copy-paste from. Can you pull out all the text in that image so I can work with it?”
Convert handwritten form to digital text
“I've got a scanned image of a handwritten intake form. Can you run OCR on it and give me the text so I can enter it into our system?”

Endpoint
POSThttps://ocr-api.pdfextractapi.workers.dev/ocrWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need a simple, pay-per-call OCR service that accepts raw image file uploads (photos, screenshots, scans) and returns extracted text, without needing to set up a full OCR SDK or manage API keys beyond x402 micropayment. Ideal for lightweight agent workflows processing occasional documents at $0.02 per call.
Side effects
- Image file not provided or malformed binary input returns an error
- Unreadable or very low-resolution images may produce garbled or incomplete text output
- Non-image file formats uploaded as the file field may cause processing failures
- Network or Cloudflare Worker timeout for very large image files
- Payment not fulfilled (x402) results in a 402 Payment Required response before processing
