An OCR tool designed recognizing, copying and pronouncing Japanese text Namida OCR is a local Chrome extension that delivers fast, offline text recognition with Tesseract.js, plus an optional TTS feature for Japanese text. - Snip & OCR: Press Alt + Q on Windows or Option + Q on Mac to snip any region of the page containing Japanese text (vertical). - Furigana: Choose from either Hiragana or Katakana phonetic pronunciation of Kanji. - Clipboard & TTS: The recognized text is automatically copied to your clipboard and can also be spoken aloud using Chrome’s built-in voices, including high-quality remote Japanese voices. - Privacy-Focused: No external servers are used. All OCR and (optional) up-scaling happen locally in your browser. - Tensorflow Upscaling: Select Tensorflow for sharper text in challenging images, or opt for faster linear up-scaling. Ideal for manga, visual novels, or any scenario where you want to quickly extract and optionally listen to Japanese text. Namida OCR keeps everything in-browser and offline, giving you full control over your data.
