Description

Prizmo 4 is a scanning application with Optical Character Recognition (OCR) in 28 languages with powerful editing capabilities, text-to-speech, iCloud support, and translation into 59 languages.

No matter what capture device is at hand, Prizmo is the best option for scanning and performing OCR. It works with pictures taken with your iPhone, iPad, or digital camera, with documents coming from connected or Wi-Fi scanners, even with screenshots! It will help you easily scan any documents (invoices, receipts, boards, giant advertisements...) of any sizes (US Letter, US Legal, A4, and custom)...

"My results were great, and it could definitely act as my only scanner. But, it really isn’t only a scanner, it can be used on anything. If you see a movie poster or an ad that you like and would like to have documented, just take a picture, and Prizmo will help you with perspective, cropping and everything else." (by Joe Turner - MacApper)

Optimized for macOS Ventura.

Domenico! ,

Little joy especially after pro pack purchase

A good tool but not sure about the machine learning implementation.

- No appreciable difference with pro pack OCR added on. I'm trying to read a clean scanned car service manual.. getting errors like "cranksnaft" "hpottant!" "sushing" "prassure requiator" "Fightening" to name a few.

- Please allow 'find and replace' across the whole document not page by page. So at least I can fix common errors. Spell check doesn't have a 'change all' feature.

Developer Response ,

Hello. Would you mind sending us the document so that we can test it out here as well? That'd be appreciated. Have you tried using the "Readability" setting in order to improve OCR results? We take note of your feedback. /TC

Crashedy, Crash, Crash Crash

Organizing your pages is a knife in the eye, and if that wasn't bad enough, the whole program crashes after about ten minutes.

Developer Response ,

Hello. We have improved stability in Prizmo (+ many bug fixes) over the years. Should you still notice any issues with the app though, don't hesitate to contact our support service (support@creaceed.com). /TC
