Question 1

How accurate is OCR for Indian legal documents?

Accepted Answer

LawCentral uses Claude AI vision for OCR, which achieves ~98% accuracy for printed English and ~95-98% for Hindi/Devanagari text. This is significantly better than traditional OCR engines like Tesseract, especially for mixed-language Indian court orders.

Question 2

Can it read handwritten court orders?

Accepted Answer

Yes, with limitations. The AI-powered OCR handles clear handwriting at approximately 80-90% accuracy. For highly cursive or illegible handwriting, accuracy drops. Best results come from photographing the document in good lighting with a flat surface.

Question 3

What file formats are supported for OCR?

Accepted Answer

Supported formats include PDF (scanned), PNG, JPG, JPEG, TIFF, and WebP. You can upload images taken with your phone camera or scanned copies from a scanner.
