What our Khmer handwriting OCR does
Optical character recognition made for the way Khmer is actually written across Cambodia.
Accurate Khmer script recognition
Khmer stacks subscript consonants beneath the main letter and runs words together without spaces. Our OCR is tuned for Khmer specifically, so khmer subscript recognition is handled properly instead of being guessed.
Reads real Khmer handwriting
This engine is trained on everyday Khmer penmanship from Cambodia, not just neat print — so casual and rushed writing is still recognised.
Scan photos, images and PDFs
Upload a phone photo, a scanner image or a multi-page PDF. The OCR pulls Khmer text out of school work, letters and official documents.
Editable OCR output
Recognised text lands in an editable panel, so you can correct anything the engine misread before you copy or download it.
Export in multiple formats
Save recognised text as TXT, Markdown, Word (.docx) or PDF, or copy it straight to your clipboard.
Private, secure recognition
Each Khmer image is processed securely and deleted right after OCR runs. Nothing is stored on our servers.
