AI Image to Text Copilot
Manually typing out text from image attachments in emails is slow and error-prone. This copilot watches for new Gmail messages with image attachments, fetches the image, runs Python OCR to extract visible text, and drafts a polite reply containing that text for your review. You approve the draft — no copying, no retyping.

How it works
- A new email with an image attachment arrives in Gmail.
- The copilot fetches the email and attachment.
- Python OCR extracts all readable text from the image.
- A draft reply with the extracted text is created in Gmail for your approval.
Key benefits
- Eliminate manual retyping of text from photos and scans.
- Draft replies in seconds instead of minutes.
- Receive a confidence score (High, Medium, Low) so you know OCR quality.

Use cases
- Office assistants processing scanned documents or handwritten notes.
- Customer support teams replying to photo-based inquiries.
- Researchers digitizing text from printed materials in emails.
Works with Gmail
This assistant connects to Gmail once — no code required. It is not a plain field-copy integration: as data moves, the AI adds a real decision step (classify, extract, prioritize, draft), and a human approves before anything is sent to Gmail.
