About
Document Scanner turns paper into searchable digital records. People capture pages with a device camera or upload existing files, and the browser handles corner detection and perspective correction.
OCR extracts text with broad language support, and full-text search covers file names and document contents with highlighted snippets, folders and filters. Teams share folders and documents with role-based access.
Developers can build with a REST API, a CLI for terminals and CI, and a JavaScript package that runs the scanning pipeline on-device in the browser. The site describes Document Scanner as an early-stage product.
Butts Studios designed the landing site and the product interface.
