Description
OhMyOCR turns documents and images into traceable, usable data. Every extracted box links back to its exact position in the original file, so you can visually verify the result instead of trusting a plain text dump. It also supports structured extraction for receipts, bank statements and other scenarios, visual document comparison, translation, conversion and searchable results. Registration is free and includes monthly credits.

Could you build this?
Partial Building an interface to view extracted OCR is easy, but generating high-accuracy word- and block-level bounding boxes aligned precisely with structured JSON requires advanced vision pipelines.
What it would actually take: The backend requires pairing an OCR engine (such as Google Cloud Document AI, AWS Textract, or an open-source layout model like PaddleOCR/LayoutLM) with an LLM prompt pipeline that preserves token coordinate mappings. The hard part is building an interactive canvas (PDF.js + SVG overlay) that synchronizes bounding box highlights bi-directionally with structured JSON nodes, especially across complex multi-column layouts, skewed scans, and multipage documents. This requires dedicated frontend document manipulation and computer vision integration expertise.
