OCR
Turn photos and scans directly into usable, searchable text.
What is OCR?
OCR extracts handwritten or printed text from photos, scans and screenshots and converts it into text you can copy, search and process. For a business owner, this means paper and loose images no longer need to be typed out manually.
How does it work?
- Upload a photo or scan, or send it to Slimbot via WhatsApp or e-mail.
- Our AI recognises the text, even with skewed or slightly poorer scans.
- You get the text back neatly as an editable file or plain text.
- Forward the output to Excel, Notion or your own system.

Frequently asked questions
Does it also work with handwritten text?
Yes, our AI also recognises handwriting. With neatly written text it works best; with messy handwriting you can always review the output before you use it.
What if the photo is skewed or blurry?
Our AI corrects slight skew and moderate lighting itself. With a very blurry photo, we recommend taking a new one for the best result.
In which languages does text recognition work?
Dutch and the most common languages are supported, so the platform also picks up English or German documents.
