Can we even OCR pdfs using Apple Vision APIs
- prats226 2y agoDon't think you can. And also there is big difference in plain old OCR, which is just getting all text out from image and document processing which is can you only get the relevant information in a good structure that can be directly pushed into a database.
- derrasterpunkt 2y agoYou can[1]. I’m vibe coding a little macOS OCR app since last weekend, and I’m really happy with the results so far. This is my first app, so fingers crossed. If it becomes feature-complete and polished enough, I’m considering open sourcing it. There’s still a long way to go, though.
