DeepSeek-OCR is an open-source optical character recognition solution built as part of the broader DeepSeek AI vision-language ecosystem. It is designed to extract text from images, PDFs, and scanned documents, and integrates with multimodal capabilities that understand layout, context, and visual elements beyond raw character recognition. The system treats OCR not simply as “read the text” but as “understand what the text is doing in the image”—for example distinguishing captions from body text, interpreting tables, or recognizing handwritten versus printed words. ...

GLM-OCR is an open-source multimodal optical character recognition (OCR) model built on a GLM-V encoder–decoder foundation that brings robust, accurate document understanding to complex real-world layouts and modalities. Designed to handle text recognition, table parsing, formula extraction, and general information retrieval from documents containing mixed content, GLM-OCR excels across major benchmarks while remaining highly efficient with a relatively compact parameter size (~0.9B), enabling deployment in high-concurrency services and edge environments. ...

DeepSeek-OCR-2 is the second-generation optical character recognition system developed to improve document understanding by introducing a “visual causal flow” mechanism, enabling the encoder to reorder visual tokens in a way that better reflects semantic structure rather than strict raster scan order. It is designed to handle complex layouts and noisy documents by giving the model causal reasoning capabilities that mimic human visual scanning behavior, enhancing OCR performance on documents with rich spatial structure. ...

Unlimited-OCR is Baidu’s open-source optical character recognition (OCR) model designed to accurately extract and understand text from complex documents, images, and multilingual content. Unlike traditional OCR systems that focus only on text detection and transcription, Unlimited-OCR combines advanced document parsing with language understanding, enabling it to recognize structured elements such as tables, formulas, charts, and mixed-layout documents while preserving their logical organization. ...

...The model excels at non-standard layouts and complex table structures, outperforming non-reasoning OCR systems like GPT-4o and OCRFlux, and competing with large closed-source reasoning models like Gemini 2.5. Thinking token usage can range from 20% to 500% of the final answer, depending on task difficulty. NuMarkdown-8B-Thinking is released under the MIT license and supports vLLM and Transformers for deployment.

translategemma-4b-it is a lightweight, state-of-the-art open translation model from Google, built on the Gemma 3 family and optimized for high-quality multilingual translation across 55 languages. It supports both text-to-text translation and image-to-text extraction with translation, enabling workflows such as OCR-style translation of signs, documents, and screenshots. With a compact ~5B parameter footprint and BF16 support, the model is designed to run efficiently on laptops, desktops, and private cloud infrastructure, making advanced translation accessible without heavy hardware requirements. TranslateGemma uses a structured chat template that enforces explicit source and target language codes, ensuring consistent, deterministic behavior and reducing ambiguity in multilingual pipelines. ...
