DocTR
Library for OCR-related tasks powered by Deep Learning
DocTR provides an easy and powerful way to extract valuable information from your documents. Seemlessly process documents for Natural Language Understanding tasks: we provide OCR predictors to parse textual information (localize and identify each word) from your documents. Robust 2-stage (detection + recognition) OCR predictors with pretrained parameters. User-friendly, 3 lines of code to load a document and extract text with a predictor. State-of-the-art performances on public document datasets, comparable with GoogleVision/AWS Textract. Easy integration (available templates for browser demo & API deployment). End-to-End OCR is achieved in docTR using a two-stage approach: text detection (localizing words), then text recognition (identify all characters in the word). As such, you can select the architecture used for text detection, and the one for text recognition from the list of available implementations. -

DeepSeek-OCR
Contexts Optical Compression
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. It supports local deployment, enabling organizations concerned about privacy or latency to run the pipeline on-premises rather than send sensitive documents to third-party cloud services. The codebase is written in Python with a focus on modularity: you can swap preprocessing, recognition, and post-processing components as needed for custom workflows. -

PandaOCR
Multifunctional OCR Image and Text Recognition
At present, the newly refactored PandaOCR.Pro professional version has been released. It is faster and more stable, with richer interfaces and easier operation. It is recommended for you to use it! The normal version will continue to be maintained, and all interfaces will be retained but no new functions will be added. The reason why the version number of the professional version starts from 5.x is that the normal version will be updated in the future, so a period of version number is reserved. You can continue to use the regular version for free as before, without worrying about deactivating the regular version after the launch of the professional version. If you have higher needs, you can try the professional version. You can also use the Baidu API interface without activation. Support shortcut keys and screen corner trigger screenshot recognition function, convenient and fast. -

Scribe.js
JavaScript OCR and text extraction for images and PDFs
Scribe.js is a JavaScript library that provides Optical Character Recognition (OCR) and text extraction capabilities for both images and PDF documents, aimed at developers who want to build OCR features directly into their applications. The library can take image files (such as PNG or JPEG) and recognize the text they contain, and it can also extract text from PDF files that either already contain text or are image-based scans, using modern web standards and WebAssembly under the hood. In addition to simple text extraction, Scribe.js supports writing or injecting a high-quality invisible text layer back into PDFs, effectively making them searchable and improving usability for indexing or accessibility. It is written in modern ECMAScript Modules (ESM), so it can be imported in both browser and Node.js environments without a build step, though browser usage requires same-origin hosting of the files. -

PaddleOCR-json
OCR offline image text recognition command line windows program
PaddleOCR-json is an OCR engine based on the PaddleOCR project that provides a command-line interface and tools for extracting text from images and exporting results in structured JSON format. It wraps the PaddleOCR models, which are capable of detecting and recognizing text in a wide variety of languages and layouts, into a self-contained executable that can be run locally without needing a deep learning environment configured manually. This makes it practical for developers or system integrators who want reliable OCR output in JSON while avoiding the complexity of training or managing models by hand. Projects and wrappers built around PaddleOCR-json demonstrate how it can be integrated into other applications, such as desktop OCR utilities or language-specific bindings, because the JSON output is easy to parse and consume. -

DeepSeek-OCR 2
Visual Causal Flow
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. The repository provides model code and inference scripts that let researchers and developers run and benchmark the system on both images and PDFs, with support for batch evaluation and optimized pipelines leveraging vLLM and transformers. -

HunyuanOCR
OCR expert VLM powered by Hunyuan's native multimodal architecture
HunyuanOCR is an open-source, end-to-end OCR (optical character recognition) Vision-Language Model (VLM) developed by Tencent‑Hunyuan. It’s designed to unify the entire OCR pipeline, detection, recognition, layout parsing, information extraction, translation, and even subtitle or structured output generation, into a single model inference instead of a cascade of separate tools. Despite being fairly lightweight (about 1 billion parameters), it delivers state-of-the-art performance across a wide variety of OCR tasks, outperforming many traditional OCR systems and even other multimodal models on benchmark suites. HunyuanOCR handles complex documents: multi-column layouts, tables, mathematical formulas, mixed languages, handwritten or stylized fonts, receipts, tickets, and even video-frame subtitles. The project provides code, pretrained weights, and inference instructions, making it feasible to deploy locally or on a server, and to integrate with applications. -
