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.

Doesn't work with Catalina

The produced text is mixed and becomes unusable. I'm sad, this software was great in previous release of MacOS.

Not that great

Though the idea is great, i think alot of improvements need to be made. the software cannot recognize alot of the words when using a jpg format. so be very careful about this product because it will frustrate you.

Works Great!

I have purchased this app in order to save time and energy from having to type notes from my text books that i am studying. I simply scan or take a picture of the pages in my text books that I wish to take notes from and then open the file with Prizmo. I use the OCR function to detect the text and then simply copy and paste (the notes I would have spent time typing) into my word processor.

I am very satisified with this software and how much time and energy it saves me. This way I can concentrate on my studies and not hours of typing.

The software is very easy to use, fast, and works great! The OCR function that is built into this software is remarkable and the character recognition unbelievable. Just make sure you use a good quality scan or photo!

I have tried other OCR software and found that Prizmo provides the highest quality of text recognition.
