Here are some more options:
* AWS Textract [0]
* Microsoft Azure [1]
* Google Cloud Vision [2]
I personally use Azure, combined with OCR correction using GPT to convert a scan of my daily journal (Apple Notes creates a PDF that is nothing but a bunch of images) -> Markdown -> Extract tasks and then add them to my Reminders app using CalDav. Azure has one of the best OCR for handwritten text, but for normal document extraction (read: printed text), any service would do a reasonable job.

- swsieber 3y agoCould you explain how you use GPT for ocr correction?
- navanchauhan 3y agohttps://promptbase.com/prompt/ocr-text-fixer https://promptbase.com/prompt/ocr-text-fixer This is the prompt I bought from promptbase. You basically provide GPT with some examples on possible OCR errors, and then you give it the OCRed text and it tries to correct it
- swsieber 3y agoFascinating. Thanks!
