在哪里可以获取OCR（光学字符识别）的服务器端api？

Question

Sorry if this question is silly or vague but I have been given the task to get ocr implemented at server side during my internship.

So please help me out with your valauable suggestions. Thanks!

Answer 1

See http://ocrsdk.com its probably the best OCR there is at the moment. Its not perfect and it's quite expensive.

Otherwise there is https://github.com/tesseract-ocr/tesseract but it is ancient, written in C++, sucks and leaks memory.
