Screenshot to Table: Image to Excel, CSV or Parquet (OCR)

Turn a picture of a table into data you can edit. No more typing numbers out by hand.

Tables often arrive as images: a dashboard screenshot, a photo of a page, or a table pasted into a chat. Typing it again is slow, and mistakes are easy to make.

Screenshot to Data reads the text in your picture with OCR, which means text recognition. It then works out which words belong in which row and column, and shows you a table to check and fix. When it looks right, download it as CSV, JSON, Excel or Parquet.

The reading happens inside your browser, so the picture is not uploaded. For the best result, use a sharp image and draw a box around only the table.
