Could you build this?

Partial Printed-math OCR can wrap existing recognition APIs or open-source models, but handwriting, multi-formula pages, and whole-document conversion need specialized trained models and accuracy evaluation.

What it would actually take: A practical build would wrap an existing math OCR engine (open-source models such as pix2tex or a commercial API) behind a web frontend with a LaTeX preview and Word conversion via OMML. The hard parts are handwriting recognition and layout analysis for multi-formula pages and PDFs, which require training or fine-tuning on labeled math data. That needs ML expertise and a sizable dataset to match the quality of established tools.
