I've been using Imago for a while now and it's definitely one of the best OCR tools out there. It's helped me a lot with my work, especially when it comes to dealing with images of chemical structures. The toolkit is easy to use, even for someone like me who isn't very tech-savvy.

I have used Imago OCR for various purposes, such as converting PDFs of chemical structures into text files and extracting images of chemical structures from web pages. It is extremely accurate and very fast.

Questions & Answers

Can I use Imago in my commercial product?

Posted on January 11, 2020 by Kay Burt

GPLv3 can be used in commercial products (without the need to open code to Github), but it has some limitation on redistribution binaries (as third-party software) within a distribution package. In other words, one can use it in commercial products on the database side, but when a product is distributed with GPL components, the code should be also opened by GPL terms.

If you need support licensing for the products, or there are any additional features required, EPAM can provide a standard support contract. Price depends on the support requirements and will be defined within an SOW document.
