The Challenge

Extracting text from handwritten documents, especially difficult handwriting (like doctors' notes), has been nearly impossible with traditional OCR technology.

Real-World Scenarios
A medical office has 15 years of patient notes written by hand before they switched to digital records:

Doctor's handwriting

Notoriously illegible, mixing medical terminology with abbreviations

Historical records

Faded ink, damaged paper, cursive writing from decades ago

Field notes

Research scientists' journals with technical sketches and formulas

Legal documents

Handwritten witness statements, original wills, property deeds

Traditional OCR Fails With:

Cursive handwriting

Overlapping text and drawings

Poor image quality

Multiple handwriting styles in one document

Medical/technical abbreviations
