Google's Vision API extracts text in any language or format from images: https://cloud.google.com/vision/

There are a bunch of SaaS opportunities like this that could be made just creating wrappers for various cloud apis and selling to people who don't know they exist.

Yep, this. Basically leveraging the knowledge difference between developers on the edge of what's available with Cloud ML API services, versus people with business problems that are not aware of same. Throw in some customization and nice marketing / design for niche use cases, and you've maybe got a business.
