Snip is an amazing app built by Mathpix to help you extract LaTeX, MathML, basic table, and text from documents. It gives you the first 50 snips for free (100 snips when you sign up with a .edu or .ac.uk domain email) every single month.

With the help of MathpixOCR API and this supplementary app, you can now make up to 1000 OCR requests per month for free.

Image2LaTeX is a personal side project that keeps only core functions of the Snip such as convert images to certain LaTeX equation formats and OCR. For other advanced functions and unlimited snips, subscribe to the Snip for $4.99 per month.

New Features

  • New TSV OCR format for Microsoft Excel and more.
  • New MathML OCR format for Microsoft Word and more.

  • HTTP proxy support for making OCR request.

Requirements

  • Your API keys in your MathpixOCR dashboard (different from the Mathpix account used in the Snip app)

To change your API keys, macOS and Windows users will find the API Credentials tab in the Preferences menu item by clicking this app's menu bar icon.
