Extract Telugu (తెలుగు) and English text from any photo, scan or screenshot — free and private.
Note: Selecting mixed languages takes slightly longer as the AI loads multiple dictionaries.
Retyping Telugu text by hand is slow, and most Telugu keyboards make it even slower. This Telugu image to text converter reads the Telugu script straight from your picture and gives you editable Unicode text you can copy, search or translate. It is useful for Andhra Pradesh and Telangana certificates, Telugu newspapers and textbooks.
Crop away borders and pictures, keep the text horizontal and avoid shadows. Higher-resolution images with dark text on a light background give the cleanest Telugu output. If a page mixes Telugu with another Indian language, choose the matching option from the language menu.
The OCR engine runs inside your browser, so your Telugu documents are never uploaded to a server — safe for certificates, IDs and personal letters.
Upload the photo or screenshot (or press Ctrl+V to paste it). Telugu + English is already selected, so the Telugu text is extracted in a few seconds and you can copy it straight into Word, WhatsApp or Google Docs.
Yes. This page loads both the Telugu and English language packs, so documents that mix Telugu script with English words are read correctly.
It is designed for printed text. Neat handwriting sometimes works, but printed documents, typed text and screenshots give much better accuracy.
The Telugu language pack (a few MB) is downloaded into your browser the first time. After that it is cached and scanning is much faster.
No. The tool runs entirely inside your browser, so your files and data never leave your device. Nothing is stored or seen by us.
