okraPDF on your machine
A local PDF workbench: open a document, parse it with on-device OCR or a local vision model, read the output beside the page it came from, and redact PII without the file leaving your computer.
macOS · Apple silicon — 1.0.0-rc.25
Open a PDF, parse it on your own machine with Apple Vision or a local vision model, review source-aligned output, export Markdown, JSON, or CSV, redact PII locally with Presidio, combine, extract, and Bates-stamp PDFs, and drive every step from the bundled okra command.
