TextGrabber2

Mac menu bar Copy-to-Action tool for extracting text from images using on-device OCR

TextGrabber2 is a free and open-source "Copy-to-Action" tool that lets you extract text from copied images and seamlessly run actions.

Key Features

  • Extract text from copied images - Uses Apple's built-in Vision framework for on-device OCR that is secure, fast, accurate, and free
  • Run actions with system services - Connect to Apple Shortcuts you're already familiar with
  • Clipboard automation - Automatically prune clipboard data using custom rules or services

  • Built-in tools - Includes Translate and Quick Look functionality
