FreeAIOCR: Free AI-Powered OCR Tool – Extract Code, LaTeX Formulas, Mermaid Diagrams & Tables from Images

Hey Broadwise folks! :wave:

I’m excited to share FreeAIOCR.com – a completely free online AI OCR tool built for developers, researchers, students, and makers like us.

Unlike traditional OCR that just grabs plain text, FreeAIOCR uses advanced vision + language models to truly understand the image content and output ready-to-use formats:

  • Formatted code from screenshots (supports 50+ languages, preserves indentation & structure – paste straight into your IDE)
  • Math formulas & equations → clean LaTeX code (perfect for papers, notes, Overleaf)
  • Flowcharts, diagrams, architecture sketchesMermaid syntax (renders instantly in Markdown)
  • TablesMarkdown or HTML table code
  • Math expressions → executable code in Python, JS, etc.
  • Plain text extraction with auto image fixes (rotation, perspective, contrast)

Key perks:

  • 100% free (no credit card, generous daily limits even without login)
  • No signup/install needed – just drag/drop or paste image in browser
  • Privacy-first: images processed in real-time, deleted immediately after
  • Works on desktop/mobile, supports PNG/JPG/WebP up to 10MB

It’s especially handy for:

  • Quickly turning whiteboard sketches or old PDFs into digital assets
  • Copying code/math from tutorials/videos without re-typing
  • Prototyping docs, READMEs, or Notion/Obsidian pages faster
