Pain Points (Public)

Publishers, educators, and authors frequently hold Hindi manuscripts, educational literature, and books trapped in non-searchable physical scans, handwritten notes, or raster PDFs. Standard commercial OCR tools frequently mishandle complex Devanagari conjuncts, matras, and specialized structural layouts like tables or footnotes, forcing clients to commission costly, error-prone manual re-keying to produce clean, editable Microsoft Word (.docx) files in standard Unicode fonts like Mangal.

Suggested Approach (Public)

Deploy an Indic document digitization pipeline combining specialized Devanagari OCR with automated Unicode normalization, layout-aware structural parsing for tables and footnotes, and automated python-docx export targeting standard fonts like Mangal, paired with a dual-pane verification interface that highlights ambiguous ligatures and diacritics for rapid human review.
