Inspired byCapture2Text, Cloe is a snipping tool for theManga OCR library. The project works similarly to Capture2Text but uses the MangaOCR model instead. See demo below to see how it works.

Launch the application and wait for the model to load. Show the snipping window using shortcutAlt+Q and drag and hold the mouse cursor to start performing OCR.

Download the latest zip filehere. Decompress the file in the desired directory. Make sure that theapp folder is in the same folder as the shortcutCloe.
