Convert a picture to text in three steps
Upload the picture
One PNG, JPG or WebP per run, up to 30 MB. Try it instantly without sign-up. For a PDF, capture the page as a screenshot first.
Structure is rebuilt as Markdown
The converter reads the content and its hierarchy — titles, sub-sections, bullet lists and table grids — in any of 130+ auto-detected languages.
Copy it or save a .md file
Paste the Markdown straight into Notion, Obsidian, GitHub or any editor that renders it, or download it as a .md file.
What structured image-to-text is good for
Tables come back as tables
- A photographed price list, timetable or data sheet becomes a Markdown table with its rows and columns in place.
- No rebuilding the grid by hand after conversion — the pipe-and-dash layout is already written.
- Header rows are kept separate from the data beneath them.
Hierarchy you do not have to redo
- Titles and section headings are marked with Markdown heading levels.
- Numbered steps and bullet points stay as lists, including items nested under others.
- Slides and lecture handouts convert into outlines you can study from or edit.
Instant try, free with an account
- Try converting an image once without signing up — no card or email needed.
- Conversions are free for signed-in accounts and use no credits; registration needs no card.
- Works on Chinese, Japanese, Korean and Arabic material as well as English, with the language picked up automatically.
Want the picture itself in another language?
This converter gives you editable Markdown. If what you need is the original image with its text replaced by a translation — same layout, same design — the AI image translator does that for 10 credits per image.
