What is ZenOCR?

ZenOCR is a menu bar OCR app for macOS. Trigger it with a global shortcut to capture any part of the screen, or drag an image or PDF onto it, and it extracts the text instantly. It can convert PDFs to Markdown while preserving tables and math (LaTeX), which makes it handy for academic papers and research. ZenOCR runs open OCR models (GLM-OCR and DeepSeek-OCR2) entirely on your Mac — the models download once on first launch, then the app never touches the network again. No account, no tracking, and it works fully offline. Sold as a one-time lifetime license.
