OCR It – pull text out of un-copyable documents for your LLM

Industry news•

What happened

OCR It is an open‑source tool that uses optical character recognition to extract raw text from PDFs, scanned images, and other documents that don’t allow copying, then formats the output for easy ingestion by large language models. It provides a simple command‑line interface and API so developers can automatically feed previously inaccessible content into LLM workflows, enabling tasks like summarisation, question‑answering, or fine‑tuning on legacy documents.

Why it matters

By turning un‑copyable files into machine‑readable text, OCR It expands the data pool available to LLMs, accelerating adoption in enterprise knowledge‑base, compliance, and research applications where legacy paper archives are common.
