Introduction

The Free OCR Service plugin by Zeroqode allows you to extract text from image and PDF files, such as JPG, PNG, or PDF documents, by simply providing their URLs. This tool is ideal for converting scanned documents and images into text that can be saved in input fields, databases, or even used with screen readers. With just an API key, you can automate text extraction and streamline data processing workflows directly within your Bubble app.
