Q: OCR
The main disadvantage here is the OCR compared to other tools like Afforai, Socrates, and IKI. You only provide 20 pages, while others offer unlimited. I tried using a set that I have in Afforai with Paperguide, but I hit the limit immediately.
For me and others, 20 pages is just too little, and would not be useful for my collection. Is there a way you can lift the 20 page limit?

Thanks for your question. Currently we have this limit at per document level but you can use unlimited OCR for multiple documents. And we definitely like to improve this. Can you let us know what is the typical page volume of the OCR documents you are looking to upload/work with?
70376bec4fab41e1822433796eea9d50I mainly use books for research. Some of them are not digital and need to be scanned from the originals, with page counts varying from 100 to a few hundred pages. In my example above, out of 10 documents, only 2 needed OCR—one was 326 pages and the other 630 pages.
To compete with other current tools and future tools you might have to Lift the current 20 Page OCR per document.
