MEDIA BRIEF
Bindlore adds OCR in your browser for photos and scans of paper pages you have the right to process
Calgary, Alberta, September 17, 2026
Bindlore’s free Chrome extension accepts photos and scans of paper pages the user has the right to photograph or scan, with OCR running in your browser. The goal is the same as for digital files: produce a structured skill package (SKILL.md plus chapter references) or a Markdown, Word, or Text export. Your file isn't uploaded to Bindlore on the core path. Conversion structures source material for compatible agents; it does not guarantee agent quality.
Founder Deimira Baidoo built the OCR path for shelves that still live on paper. Users drop images alongside PDF, EPUB, Word, PowerPoint, and TXT files. A preview shows title, sections, and token count before export. Batch drop is supported.
Bindlore refuses DRM-locked digital files on purpose. Paper OCR is for pages the user has the right to photograph or scan, not a substitute for cracking protected ebooks. Optional AI extras use the user’s own OpenAI or Anthropic key; browser → provider.
