Finance & accounting
Extract totals, line items, vendor names, and due dates from invoices and receipts. Prepare spreadsheet-ready output that can reduce manual re-entry after the values are checked. Explore finance workflows.
AI OCR & Document Intelligence
Turn scans, screenshots, receipts, invoices, and image-based PDFs into text you can edit, fields you can review, and answers you can use. Think-Act keeps the source close so important details are easy to check.
OCR output is a starting point, not a final answer. Extracted text, fields, and summaries should be reviewed against the source before being used for any important work. For reading-focused uses, see Think-Act’s accessibility and reading support.
Available for 64-bit Windows 10 and Windows 11. macOS is planned.

OCR & field extraction
The first layer is making text readable
OCR converts image content into editable text. Think-Act can also pull out fields such as names, dates, totals, obligations, and references, then arrange them in a structure that is easier to check and reuse.
- Convert image text into editable, copyable content.
- Extract names, dates, totals, obligations, and references from unstructured content.
- Prepare draft tables from semi-structured documents like invoices and forms.
- Move extracted text directly into writing, agent, or office workflows.
- Preserve useful layout and structure where the original document allows it.
Document chat
Ask questions about the document.
After the text is extracted, ask for a summary, a deadline, a list of obligations, or a missing field. Check important answers against the original before using them.
Things you can ask
- Summarize this contract in plain language.
- What deadlines or renewal dates are mentioned?
- List the obligations each party has.
- Draft a follow-up email based on the action items.
- What fields are missing from this form?

Reading the pixels is only the first layer.
OCR makes document content editable. Document intelligence helps organize, question, summarize, and review that content before it moves into another workflow.
The extracted text

OCR result
Readable text extracted from the source
What raw OCR still requires
- Meaning and context still need interpretation
- Key fields need organization and validation
- Specific answers must be found manually
- Next steps must be prepared separately
Think-Act outputs
Organized output to check
- Structured field draft
- Document summary
- Source-grounded answers
- Next-step draft
What Think-Act adds
- Editable drafts organized from the extracted content
- The original source retained for comparison
- Missing or uncertain fields surfaced for review
- Checked document content prepared for follow-up work
Keep the source, extracted fields, and answers in one view
The document workspace keeps a scan, screenshot, receipt, invoice, or PDF beside the extracted text and output Think-Act prepared. Compare the source and result together before you copy, save, share, or approve anything.

Common documents & workflows
Useful across the document work you already do
Use the same read, extract, and review pattern for routine finance documents, contracts, forms, screenshots, and long reports.
Legal & contracts
Summarize scanned contracts, surface key clauses and obligations, list deadlines, and flag terms that need specialist review. Output should always be reviewed by a qualified person. Explore legal workflows.
HR & operations
Process scanned forms, extract structured data for back-office workflows, clean up research notes, and turn printed intake forms into usable records. Explore operations workflows.
Screenshots & screen content
Copy a supported screenshot and extract its visible text. This is useful for error messages, UI content, web pages, or other images that contain information you need in editable form. See developer workflows.
Reports & multi-page documents
Feed in long reports, manuals, or multi-page PDFs. Ask for executive summaries, specific section extraction, or field-by-field output for further processing. Explore office workflows.
From document to finished draft
Use checked text and fields as context for an email, report, response, or summary in the Writing Assistant.

Validation & human review
Extraction saves time, but important details still need checking.
OCR can reduce manual retyping, but quality still depends on scan resolution, font clarity, and document layout. AI interpretation can also miss context. Compare any output used for an important decision against the original document.
Verify important details
Compare totals, dates, names, and legal terms with the original document.
Keep source documents
Preserve originals so extracted content can always be traced back to its source.
Review uncertain fields
Check low-confidence text, handwriting, and complex layouts before using the result.
Use approved endpoints
For sensitive documents, use private or local endpoints where your policy requires it.
Qualified review for high-stakes work
Treat regulatory, financial, and legal output as a draft until a qualified person approves it.
Approve actions before execution
Keep downstream changes and external actions manual until the extracted data is confirmed.
Understanding the document is where automation begins
After the extracted content has been checked, Think-Act can help prepare a follow-up in another tool or system. Whether it can perform that action depends on the connector you have enabled, its permissions, and your security policy. Learn more about repeatable task automation.
Document → Action pipeline
-
Document content OCR extracts text. The agent reads and understands what the document contains.
-
Preparing an action The agent can outline a follow-up and identify the tool or connector it would require. If that connector is unavailable, it reports the missing requirement instead of choosing another route.
-
Policy-controlled actions Write actions—sending, posting, modifying files, updating systems—follow the approval rules in your security policy. Keep sensitive or high-impact changes behind confirmation so they can be reviewed before execution.
-
Repeatable as a skill When a document process is stable, save it as a local skill. The next batch can follow the same checked steps instead of rebuilding the process each time.
-
Approved connectors only External system actions use connectors you have explicitly enabled. Whether an action is allowed, blocked, or requires confirmation depends on its configured permissions and your security policy.
Common questions about document intelligence
Plain answers before you start processing documents. More questions are covered on the full FAQ page.
Download Think-ActIs OCR the same as document intelligence?
No. OCR converts image content into editable text. Document intelligence uses that text for summaries, field extraction, question answering, workflow support, and downstream automation. OCR is the first layer; document intelligence is what you build on top of it.
Can Think-Act process invoices and contracts?
Yes. It can extract and summarize content from both. High-stakes finance or legal output should always be reviewed by a qualified person before being used, posted, or shared. Think-Act prepares a draft; the final check stays with your team. See practical finance and legal workflows.
How accurate is OCR on scanned documents?
It depends on scan resolution, font clarity, document layout, and image quality. Extracted content should always be checked against the source. The output is a faster draft, not a guaranteed final value.
Can extracted data go into other systems?
Yes, when an approved connector exists and the action is enabled by policy. Review the integration requirements for the destination. The security policy determines whether a write action—posting, modifying files, or updating external records—is allowed, blocked, or requires confirmation.
Is there a free tier?
Yes. Think-Act is free to install and try. OCR, document summaries, field extraction, and basic document chat are good starting points. Upgrade to Pro or Business when document volume or team workflows require it.
How should sensitive documents be processed?
Use endpoints approved by your organization. Think-Act can use local or private endpoints where configured, and sensitive documents should not be sent to unapproved tools or services. Follow the storage, retention, and sharing policy that applies to the source document, and review the data-handling guidance before processing it.
Which operating systems support Think-Act?
Think-Act is currently available for 64-bit Windows 10 and Windows 11. A macOS version is planned, but the current download is for Windows. See the downloads page for current requirements.
