What problem does it solve?

It helps you translate visa application documents that are provided as scanned images into professional English format without manual retyping or formatting work.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Automatic OCR from images: Extracts all text from supported document types using the best available OCR method (macOS Vision, EasyOCR, or Tesseract).

  • Accuracy-focused translation: Preserves names, numbers, dates, and amounts, including pinyin formatting for Chinese names and structured document formatting suitable for official submissions.
  • Example use case: You upload an employment certificate image and receive a bilingual English translation PDF ready for visa application filing.
