Frequently Asked Questions
Where does Fast AI OCR run?
Fast AI OCR runs on Tools.FAST servers. Uploaded files are encrypted in transit and at rest, processed for extraction, and automatically deleted after one hour.
What kind of OCR does this use?
Fast AI OCR is built to find and read text in images. It runs on our servers and returns downloadable text when text is found. It does not use a chat model to interpret your document or recreate tables, forms, or layouts.
Does it preserve tables or layout?
No. It extracts the text it can read, but it does not recreate the original layout, tables, or form structure.
What screenshots work best?
Clear PNG, JPG, WebP, HEIC, TIFF, GIF, AVIF, BMP, and ICO screenshots work best. Tiny, blurred, compressed, or cropped text may return partial or empty OCR output.
