About Arabic OCR
naskh's Arabic OCR tool lets you extract Arabic text from scanned PDFs and images, made searchable and editable. It uses an Arabic-tuned AI model, so it keeps diacritics, numerals and right-to-left order that ordinary converters get wrong. It is completely free with nothing to install — your file is sent to our AI provider over an encrypted connection to run the conversion and is not stored afterwards — and it is built Arabic-first with full right-to-left support.
