AI MathScanner: Exact Layout OCR

1:1 layout math scanner. Export to native Word OMML & LaTeX.

AI MathScanner: Exact Layout OCR launched on May 18, 2026 with 2 votes, #6,288 of 20,538 launches that month.

What it does

Most math OCR tools only snip single formulas and completely ruin page layouts. AI MathScanner is built for STEM pros. It digitizes entire multi-column math exams and research papers, retaining the exact 1:1 layout. Standout features: Export natively editable OMML formulas directly to Word (no LaTeX needed, but supported!). Flawlessly handles complex multi-column documents and chemistry structures. High-speed Cloud AI & On-device privacy modes. Stop typing, just snap and edit!

    Hi HN, I’ve been working on an OCR pipeline specifically optimized for machine learning dataset preparation. It’s designed to process complex academic materials — including math formulas, tables, figures, and multilingual text — and output clean, structured formats like JSON and Markdown. Some features: • Multi-stage OCR combining DocLayout-YOLO, Google Vision, MathPix, and Gemini Pro Vision • Extracts and understands diagrams, tables, LaTeX-style math, and multilingual text (Japanese/Korean/English) • Highly tuned for ML training pipelines, including dataset generation and…

  • Hey HN, Henry here from Cactus. We open-sourced Needle, a 26M parameter function-calling (tool use) model. It runs at 6000 tok/s prefill and 1200 tok/s decode on consumer devices. We were always frustrated by the little effort made towards building agentic models that run on budget phones, so we conducted investigations that led to an observation: agentic experiences are built upon tool calling, and massive models are overkill for it. Tool calling is fundamentally retrieval-and-assembly (match query to tool name, extract argument values, emit JSON), not reasoning. Cross-attention…
