Cmd+C+C works great for text you can highlight. But images, scanned PDFs, and locked interfaces are a different story — you can't select a single character.
TextBoi's built-in OCR reads the text visually, so you can fix or translate anything on your screen — no matter what app it's in.
See text in a screenshot? Drag to select the area — TextBoi reads it and fixes it instantly.
Non-selectable PDFs and image files are no longer an obstacle — OCR extracts every word.
Apps that block copy-paste aren't a problem. If you can see the text, TextBoi can read it.
DeepL can't do this · Grammarly can't do this · TextBoi can.
Cmd+Shift+C to enter capture mode, drag over any text on screen — even from images or locked apps — and TextBoi reads and fixes it instantly.
Real app demo
Here's how OCR capture works in the actual TextBoi app. Notice how it reads text from a screenshot — no copy-paste, no retyping.
