Questions
Frequently asked
Yes. The core handwriting-to-text tool is completely free with no sign-up required. We may offer optional premium features in the future, but the base tool will always be free.
Accuracy depends on legibility and image quality. For clear, well-lit photos of readable handwriting, results are typically very good. Extremely messy or heavily cursive handwriting may need some manual correction after extraction.
We use a secure hybrid approach. Standard OCR runs locally in your browser, while advanced handwriting intelligence is processed securely via enterprise APIs to ensure maximum accuracy. We never store your files or use them to train public models.
You can upload JPEG, PNG, WebP, BMP, TIFF, and GIF images, as well as PDF files. For best results with handwriting, we recommend well-lit photos in JPEG or PNG format.
That's what inspired the name! While no tool guarantees 100% accuracy with notoriously difficult medical handwriting, DoctorDocs does a solid job with most prescriptions and medical notes. Always verify medication names with your pharmacist.
