Zim Docs OCR-to-JSON Extractor

Overview

Welcome to the Zim Docs OCR-to-JSON Extractor! This is a powerful and user-friendly web application built with Gradio, designed to help you upload scanned documents (PDFs) or images (PNG, JPG, etc.). It then uses a vision AI model to perform Optical Character Recognition (OCR) and extract structured information into a JSON format. This tool aims to streamline your process of digitizing and organizing data from various document types, such as driver's licenses, passports, national ID cards, invoices, receipts, and more.

Requirements

To use this application, you'll need:

• Python 3.7+
• Gradio
• Gradio-PDF (gradio_pdf)
• Requests
• PyMuPDF (fitz)
• An API Key from OpenRouter.ai (or any other service compatible with the OpenAI chat completions API format).
  • You should set this key as an environment variable named API_KEY. The Python script uses os.getenv("API_KEY") to retrieve this key. If you're using Hugging Face Spaces, you can set this as a "Secret".
