How it works

Open the tool on your phone (or any device with a camera) and start the camera.
Frame the document: edges are detected automatically, and each capture can be perspective-corrected and enhanced in color, grayscale, or black-&-white.
Capture as many pages as you need; reorder or delete them in the page strip. On a desktop without a camera, drop photo files instead.
Export everything as a single multi-page PDF.

What people use it for

Scanning receipts, contracts, and forms with your phone, no scanner app install.
Digitizing a stack of paperwork into one clean PDF.
Converting existing document photos into a proper PDF from the desktop fallback.

Good to know

Captures are capped at 1600 px on the long side to keep memory in check, plenty for documents, but not an archival-grade scan.
Edge detection expects a document that contrasts with its background; on busy backgrounds it falls back to the full frame, which you can still use.
The camera never records: frames are processed locally and only the pages you keep go into the PDF.

Frequently asked questions

Does this work on iPhone and Android?

Yes, it uses the browser's camera API with the rear camera, no app installation. Your browser will ask for camera permission the first time.

Which enhancement mode should I pick?

Black-&-white gives the classic high-contrast scan look and the smallest files; grayscale preserves stamps and pencil; color keeps everything as shot.

Are my captures uploaded?

No. Corner detection, perspective correction, enhancement, and the PDF export all run in your browser. Nothing is transmitted.
