Detailed Description
We launched our free table extractor tool, not more than 3 months ago, and this time we’re back with Docsumo OCR Chrome extension.
With Docsumo's OCR chrome extension, we want to make it easier for people surfing the web to take notes and extract data from the content available online and keep it safe. With that in mind, we’re happy to share the OCR chrome extension which allows you to:-
i) Screenshot any image/text-block on a web-page and extract data
ii) Review and edit the extracted data and verify for the accuracy
iii) Copy or share it with anyone
Note - The extension doesn’t follow any formatting, that means the extracted text will not be the same in terms of size, font, color, alignment etc. It’s just a plain extracted text.
Although, a lot of websites allow you to copy HTML text but what makes our OCR Chrome Extension different is that it can extract text from images and protected text blocks.
Features:-
✅ Text extraction from images/text-blocks
✅ Data review before copying/sharing
✅ Multiple languages support
✅ Free to use
A little introduction about what we’re trying to do at Docsumo.
💡 What is Docsumo?
Docsumo automates document processing to help enterprises make accurate & fast decisions from unstructured documents.
🤔 How is Docsumo different?
Docsumo is able to extract complex tables and key-value pairs from any kind of document. It performs better than AWS Textract & Google Doc AI.
You can customize the output & train on your document type. Additionally, you get categorized & normalized data along with analytics in the same API call.
It comes with pre-built models for 100+ document types including IDs, driver licenses, passports, vehicle registrations, insurance cards, invoices, bank statements, bill of lading, financial statements, ACORD forms, rent rolls, etc.
💰 How much does it cost?
The extension is free to use. You don’t need to make any payments or even register your credit card. Please reach out to us at hello@docsumo.com if you are processing more than 2000 documents per month.
Looking forward to seeing you try out the free tool and automate your processes. If you would like to speak with us for your use case, please schedule a call at https://calendly.com/docsumo/demo
