Which is the Best OCR Technology?

Hi All,


Can anyone advice which is the Best OCR Technology(Free/Subscription based) in  Python or C#,? We have already tried Tesseract / Google Vision API etc but no one gives 100% accuracy. Many times 0 -> O, 6->8 or vice versa.

Kindly Help.

Thanks

Probably tesseract. https://github.com/tesseract-ocr
There is NO OCR that will have 100% accuracy.  You may help yourself a lot by combining Tesseract with some kind of spell checker. Tesseract should be able to take hints as well. Also tell the OCR tooling what font you are scanning as for some fonts the differece between O & 0 is clear enough if the font is known.
Also download the right language library for tesseract as that will help as well.

If your language is not available in the standard set then checkout the training tools.
