Adds a searchable, copyable text layer to scanned PDFs, with automatic deskew, rotation and size optimization, outputting PDF/A by default. Built on Tesseract, supports 100+ languages and runs fully locally.

From Firecrawl: converts Word, PowerPoint, Excel, PDF, EPUB, RTF and more into clean Markdown locally in milliseconds, keeping headings, tables, footnotes and formulas so agents can read attachments. Needs Node.js; optional Firecrawl cloud OCR for scans uploads the whole file.

Offline speech transcription and translation based on Whisper; audio never leaves your machine. buzz add exports lectures, interviews and meeting recordings to TXT, SRT or VTT. pip install needs Python 3.12 and FFmpeg; a desktop app is also available. Check transcripts manually.

Scans files and directories for personal data such as names, emails and credit card numbers using Presidio Analyzer, with configurable entity types, confidence thresholds and ignore rules. Needs Python 3.10+ and a spaCy language model.

PDF command line written in pure Go with almost no external dependencies: dozens of subcommands to merge, split, crop, rotate, watermark, encrypt and decrypt, extract images and fonts, and work with forms.

Lightweight OCR built on PaddleOCR models converted to ONNX, recognizing Chinese and English by default on CPU alone. The rapidocr CLI reads text from screenshots, photos and scanned page images. Needs Python; downloads models on first run, then works offline. Convert PDFs to images first.

Visually compares two PDFs page by page: reports differences via exit code, writes a PDF with differences highlighted, or opens a GUI for side-by-side review. Useful for checking contract or generated-document revisions. No longer actively developed.

Converts PDFs to editable Word files, keeping paragraphs, tables, images and layout as closely as possible, and can extract tables alone, handy when a contract or exam only exists as PDF. Needs Python; digital PDFs only, OCR scans first. No longer actively maintained by Artifex.

Scans codebases and dependencies for open-source licenses, copyright notices and package manifests, detecting licenses by full-text matching, with output in JSON, SPDX, CycloneDX and more, for open-source compliance reviews.

The Linux Foundation's open-source compliance toolchain: analyzes project dependencies, scans licenses and copyrights, checks known vulnerabilities, flags policy violations and generates SBOMs and notice files. Needs Java 25 or Docker and ideally 8 GB RAM; have legal review license findings.

From Free Law Project: finds bad redactions in PDFs, where a black box covers text that can still be selected and copied, and outputs the leaked text and positions per page as JSON. Useful for lawyers checking filings before release. Needs Python 3.10+; may miss cases, so review important files.

Official FSFE command-line tool that checks every file in a project for copyright and license information per the REUSE spec, adds headers in bulk, downloads license texts and generates an SPDX bill of materials. Needs Python; have legal review the results.

DeepL's official CLI: translate text and PDF, Word, PowerPoint and Excel documents while keeping formatting, with glossaries and translation memory. Needs a DeepL API key (free plan available); install from source with Node.js 24.15+. Have legal translations reviewed.
