Use cases

Made for students, teachers, and researchers

Offline OCR: Math to Word is focused on math-heavy work, not generic image-to-text conversion.

Notes

Students

Turn handwritten notes, homework pages, and exam review sheets into editable study material without retyping every formula.

Worksheets

Teachers

Convert class handouts, worksheets, answer sheets, and formula-heavy PDFs into reusable teaching documents.

Papers

Researchers

Extract equations, symbols, tables, and structured text from technical documents for review, citation, and reuse.

Local vs Cloud

Free local mode plus optional cloud AI

Use local OCR for privacy and everyday recognition. Switch to cloud AI only when a page has complex formulas, dense layout, handwriting, or math-solving needs.

Free local mode

Run private recognition on your device. Your images stay local for everyday OCR tasks.

Cloud AI mode

Upgrade for advanced formula recognition, AI solving, math explanations, layout analysis, and higher-accuracy cloud processing.

Editable exports

Move beyond copied text. Create Word and PDF files, extract LaTeX, save text, or continue editing through a project workflow.

Workflow

How the OCR workflow works

1

Upload or capture a page

Start from a math photo, screenshot, worksheet scan, or document page.

2

Run OCR

Recognize text blocks, formula areas, symbols, and document structure.

3

Review the result

Correct formulas, check symbols, and clean up layout before export.

4

Export your document

Create Word, PDF, LaTeX, text, or a project file for continued editing.

Accuracy notes

What to expect from math OCR

OCR accuracy depends on scan quality, handwriting clarity, formula complexity, and page layout. Simple printed formulas usually need less correction. Dense matrices, multi-column scans, low-light photos, and messy handwriting may need manual review. For difficult pages, optional cloud AI can improve formula and layout recognition.
