Sharing a screenshot or photo publicly often means dealing with something in it you'd rather not include — a face, a license plate, a name on a document. Going the other direction, sometimes the information you actually want is trapped inside an image and needs to come out as usable text.
Manual redaction beats automatic when precision matters
Automatic face-detection tools occasionally miss a face at an odd angle or blur the wrong region entirely. TeckForge's Face / Region Blur tool uses manual click-and-drag selection instead — slower for a large batch, but reliable for the one photo you actually need redacted correctly the first time.
OCR turns a photo of text into text you can edit
A screenshot of a paragraph, a photographed document, or a scanned page all have one thing in common: the text inside them isn't selectable or searchable until something extracts it. The OCR — Image to Text tool reads printed text out of an image directly in your browser, no scanning software required.
Handwriting is a harder, more specific problem
Standard OCR is tuned for printed fonts and often does poorly on handwriting, which varies wildly from person to person. The dedicated Handwriting to Text tool is built specifically for that case — handwritten notes, forms, or journal pages — rather than treating it as a generic OCR job.
Both directions — redacting and extracting — run entirely on-device, so neither the original photo nor the text pulled out of it is ever sent anywhere.
