I find it interesting that there's all these independent AI-OCR Projects but still no commercial offering. Is it still too inaccurate, too complex or simply too expensive?

Whats the main advantages to plexamp? From what i can tell from the screenshots, the UI looks very clean.

Yeah it's a very small study. But there's a huge online community of long-covid and me/cfs sufferers (10k + people) who tried it out and report back in form of a facebook group. And there's actually quite a success rate. Which again is hard to quantify but nevertheless...

Fully agree. I started to install the newest iOS & MacOS releases just before the next major version is being released. I'm always one version behind but kinda works well this way.

Thanks. That sounds like a nice webapp. In my case it's easier to copy the text from the Mac Preview. Since M1 it does OCR quite well. This way I don't have to convert the pdf to png. Still i'd love a fully automated way.

When the PDF is very clearly structured it's working just fine. But let's say the layout consists of multiple columns and complex formatting the output gets very imprecise. If the material is scanned it won't function at all.
