Common questions
Is it free?+
Yes — convert JPG to Text free. Paid plans add larger files, batch and priority.
Is my file private?+
Uploads go to a private bucket, are converted, and auto-delete after 1 hour. Files never touch a third-party converter.
Does it handle scans?+
Yes — scanned and photographed text is read with Tesseract OCR, so you get real text even when there's no digital text layer.
