NoteWorthy vs FrankenOCR

Smart notes that never leave your device. NoteWorthy writes your titles, summarizes your notes, cleans up your formatting and files everything in the right place. All of it runs on your iPhone, iPad or Mac. There is no account to create, no server to trust and no internet connection required, because the app makes no network requests at all. NOW ON THE MAC NoteWorthy 2.0 is a native Mac app. It sits on the edge of your screen as a notebook of flaps, one per label: pull a flap and its notes slide out. Capture a note without leaving what you are doing, keep a sticky on the desk beside your work, and reach your recent notes from the menu bar. AI Format and AI Organize run on your Mac, not on a server. WRITE Rich text with real Markdown underneath. Checkboxes, headings, bold and italic, tables and images. Pick from six paper colors. Scan text straight out of a photo. LET IT ORGANIZE Every note gets a title and lands in Tasks, Work, Ideas, Info or Personal on its own. Make your own labels and pin the ones you use most. One tap on AI Organize tidies the whole library, and running it twice changes nothing, because filing reads what is already stored rather than asking a model to guess again. AI FORMAT AND AI SUMMARIZE Jot something down messily and let it become a proper structured note, with lists, checkboxes and headings, and your wording untouched. Or pull a long note down to a sentence or two. Preview both before anything is applied. EVERYWHERE YOU ALREADY ARE Add to NoteWorthy from any share sheet, including Safari selections. Five Shortcuts actions for Siri, the Action button and automations, including Summarize and Format, which work on text from any app. Widgets for your Home Screen and your Mac desktop, with checkboxes you can tick without opening the app. Spotlight finds your notes. JOINED UP Dates become calendar events. People link to your contacts. Addresses open in Maps. Set a reminder before a deadline. YOURS ALONE Lock the app with Face ID or Touch ID. Notes are written to disk with file protection. Export any note as Markdown and take it with you. Each device keeps its own notes: nothing is copied to a cloud. One download for iPhone, iPad and Mac, in 11 languages. Note: on-device intelligence needs an Apple Intelligence-capable device. Elsewhere NoteWorthy falls back to fast built-in heuristics and works just as well for writing, filing and search.

Extract text from an image or scanned PDF without uploading the document. FrankenOCR uses the same pure-Rust Unlimited-OCR engine as the FrankenOCR command-line project. Choose a photo, file, camera capture, tall scrolling screenshot, or scanned PDF. The app reads the input in memory and produces structured Markdown on the device. The flagship recognition path uses a downloaded, verified Baidu Unlimited-OCR model for careful document extraction. Tall screenshots are divided with overlap-aware smart cuts, while PDF pages are processed as a document and low-yield pages are called out instead of silently disappearing. Live Camera mode uses Apple's on-device Vision text recognition for speed. It is less accurate than the flagship FrankenOCR model, and the app labels that tradeoff clearly. Recognized words flow from their camera positions into the capture tray as the view updates. The current app ships one flagship model: Unlimited-OCR. It does not claim to include GOT-OCR2, SmolVLM2, OneChart, or a music-recognition model. Images, PDFs, camera frames, and recognized text stay on the device. Network access is used only to download the static flagship model files.
