Who it is for
- Students copying text from slides or photos

- OCR output needs checking for typos, and table structure usually does not survive
- Scanned identity, medical or financial documents should not go to an online tool without checking its policy
- Low-resolution images produce poor results
- Check file size limits and how long uploaded files are kept
