Handwriting to text — Content Factory
Handwriting recognition still fails on most real handwriting: joined letters, hurried notes, old ink and non-Latin scripts. Content Factory treats handwriting as transcription. Native readers type every line from the image and mark anything they cannot read with certainty.
The handover
Verified text
Every page checked by a native reader of the language against the original image before it leaves the studio.
Your format
Word, searchable PDF, Excel, plain text, JSON or XML, with file names and folders matching your originals.
Query log
Words that cannot be read with certainty are flagged, not guessed, so you know exactly where to look.
Confidentiality
NDA before files are sent. Your documents are deleted from our systems on request after delivery.
Published starting prices, per page
Every price below includes human verification by a native reader of the language. The final per-page figure is fixed in writing after your free ten-page sample, because print quality and handwriting change the effort. Volume above 10,000 pages is priced lower.

Ten pages free, then a fixed price
1 · A free sample
Send ten representative pages. Content Factory runs them and returns the text with an accuracy note, so you judge the output before committing to volume.
2 · Scope and price
A per-page figure fixed in writing, based on what the sample showed: print quality, handwriting, tables, languages.
3 · Machine pass
Pages are cleaned, deskewed and run through recognition trained for the language and script.
4 · Human verification
A native reader of the language checks every page against the original image.
5 · Delivery
Word, searchable PDF, Excel, plain text, JSON or XML. Your files are deleted from our systems on request.
Only languages we can verify
Every page is checked by a native reader, so Content Factory takes OCR work only in languages our team reads natively. Others are added when a reader joins the team.
