Frisian OCR: Turn Handwritten Latin Script into Editable Text

Why people reach for our Frisian handwriting converter
Made for the way Frisian is actually written across Friesland in the Netherlands.
Made for Latin script
This is not a generic reader. It knows the quirks of Latin script, which is why frisian recognition works as well as it does.
Photos and PDFs both work
Snap a picture or drop in a multi-page PDF. We pull the Frisian text out of notes, letters and official documents.
Edit before you export

Save your text as TXT, Markdown, Word (.docx) or PDF, or copy it straight to the clipboard.
Your files stay private
Every Frisian image is processed securely and deleted right after the text is pulled. Nothing is kept on our servers.
