If you’ve ever tried to pull text out of a photo, scan, or screenshot, you know it’s not always easy. Some tools miss words, jumble characters, or just don’t recognize certain languages. That’s why we’re excited to share some big news: the Tomedes Image to Text Converter just got a major upgrade.
We’ve added a new, advanced large language model (LLM) to our tool, and it’s now live and ready for you to use. This means more accurate and more intelligent OCR (Optical Character Recognition) performance, especially on difficult image types and multilingual documents.
So what does this mean for you? Whether you’re a translator, business owner, content creator, or student, this update gives you a faster, easier, and more accurate way to turn images into editable text.
OCR isn’t new. But not all OCR tools are built the same.
What sets Tomedes apart is how we keep improving the tech behind the scenes—so you always get the best results. The latest update adds a new large language model that’s specially trained to understand and interpret visual text with a higher degree of accuracy.
Here’s what that means for you:
Better text recognition on blurry, low-resolution, or handwritten images
Improved language support, especially for non-Latin scripts like Arabic, Chinese, or Cyrillic
Fewer errors and less need for manual correction
Multiple output options, so you can compare and pick the best result
In short, it saves you time—and gives you confidence in the results.
Let’s start with the basics. The Tomedes Image to Text Converter is one of our many free AI tools built to help you handle every stage of the translation process.
With this tool, you can:
Upload an image (like a photo, scanned PDF, or screenshot)
Instantly extract the text from it
Copy, edit, or push it into another Tomedes tool (like our Pre-Translation Toolkit or AI Translator)
It’s fast, secure, and totally free to use—no login required.
The newest upgrade enhances the converter’s core engine by introducing an advanced large language model behind the scenes. This model understands text more like a human does. It’s better at recognizing patterns, interpreting context, and making smart guesses when text is partially unclear or obstructed.
Let’s say you're working with:
A scanned form with handwritten notes in the margins
A multilingual document with two or more languages in one image
A faded or low-resolution copy of a printed page
This upgraded tool can now handle all of these situations with greater accuracy.
And because it’s backed by a powerful LLM, the extracted text is often cleaner and more organized, making it easier to use for translation, editing, or content creation.
What’s new in the latest update?
You may already love using this tool, but here’s what makes the latest version even better:
The new LLM handles poor-quality or distorted images far better than before. Whether it’s a smudged signature or light pencil text, it’s more likely to get it right.
This update gives a huge boost to extracting text in languages that use special characters, diacritics, or non-Roman alphabets.
Now you can get up to two output results, powered by different OCR engines—including the new LLM. Compare the outputs and use the one that fits best.
The tool’s interface has been refined, making it even easier to drag and drop files, preview outputs, and download results.
At Tomedes, we believe technology should work for you—not the other way around.
That’s why our tools are:
Free – No paywalls, no logins, no limitations
Simple – Clean, easy-to-use interfaces
Smart – Backed by the latest AI technology
Professional – Built by a team that works with global brands and translation experts daily
The Image to Text Converter upgrade is just one of the many ways we’re keeping that promise.
We didn’t just add another OCR engine—we introduced a smarter, more intuitive way to interact with image-based content. This update brings you closer to flawless, fast, and multilingual-ready text extraction, setting the stage for even better translations and localizations.
If you work with images, scanned documents, or anything visual that contains text, the updated Tomedes Image to Text Converter is your new best friend.
