## Description

Securely connect your AI agents and chatbots (Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, etc) with Ocr web service MCP or direct API to extract text from images, process scanned PDFs, automate document parsing, and convert files into searchable data through natural language.

## Summary

Ocr web service provides powerful REST and SOAP APIs for Optical Character Recognition (OCR). Instantly convert images and scanned documents into searchable, editable text.

## Categories

- document & file management

## Toolkit Details

- Tools: 4

## Images

- Logo: https://logos.composio.dev/api/ocr_web_service

## Authentication

- **Basic**
  - Type: `basic_auth`
  - Description: Basic authentication for OCR Web Service.
  - Setup:
    - Configure Basic credentials for OCR Web Service.
    - Use the credentials when creating an auth config in Composio.

## Suggested Prompts

- Extract text from uploaded invoice image
- Check remaining OCR pages on my account
- Get OCR processing logs for last week
- Convert scanned PDF to editable Word doc

## Supported Tools

| Tool slug | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `OCR_WEB_SERVICE_GET_ACCOUNT_CREDENTIALS` | Get Account Credentials | Tool to extract OCRWebService credentials (user_name, license_code) from connection metadata. Always call this before invoking OCR_WEB_SERVICE_RECOGNIZE or OCR_WEB_SERVICE_GET_ACCOUNT_INFORMATION rather than reusing cached values, as credentials may become stale. Use OCR_WEB_SERVICE_GET_ACCOUNT_INFORMATION to verify account status and quota before submitting large jobs. |
| `OCR_WEB_SERVICE_GET_ACCOUNT_INFORMATION` | Get Account Information | Retrieve OCRWebService account information including remaining pages, subscription plan, and expiration date. Use this tool to check your account status before large OCR jobs — exhausted page quotas will cause OCR_WEB_SERVICE_RECOGNIZE to fail mid-run. Returns details about your subscription including pages remaining and plan expiration. If credentials are invalid or stale, retrieve fresh user_name and license_code via OCR_WEB_SERVICE_GET_ACCOUNT_CREDENTIALS before retrying. Requires valid OCRWebService credentials (username and license code). |
| `OCR_WEB_SERVICE_OCR_WEB_SERVICE_LOG` | OCR Web Service Log | Tool to retrieve OCR processing logs for a date range on your account. Invalid credentials or bad date ranges return empty data rather than an error, so an empty result may indicate incorrect inputs rather than no logs. |
| `OCR_WEB_SERVICE_OCR_WEB_SERVICE_RECOGNIZE` | OCRWebService Recognize | Tool to call SOAP Recognize operation. Use when performing OCR on an image to retrieve text, output document, word coordinates, and errors. Consumes page quota per call; returns HTTP 429 when limits exceeded. Check quota via OCR_WEB_SERVICE_GET_ACCOUNT_INFORMATION before large jobs; batch large PDFs in ~25–50 page chunks. |

## Installation and MCP Setup

### Path 1: SDK Installation

#### Path 1, Step 1: Install Composio

Install the Composio SDK
```python
pip install composio_openai
```

```typescript
npm install @composio/openai
```

#### Path 1, Step 2: Initialize Composio and Create Tool Router Session

Import and initialize Composio client, then create a Tool Router session
```python
from openai import OpenAI
from composio import Composio
from composio_openai import OpenAIResponsesProvider

composio = Composio(provider=OpenAIResponsesProvider())
openai = OpenAI()
session = composio.create(user_id='your-user-id')
```

```typescript
import OpenAI from 'openai';
import { Composio } from '@composio/core';
import { OpenAIResponsesProvider } from '@composio/openai';

const composio = new Composio({
  provider: new OpenAIResponsesProvider(),
});
const openai = new OpenAI({});
const session = await composio.create('your-user-id');
```

#### Path 1, Step 3: Execute Ocr web service Tools via Tool Router with Your Agent

Get tools from Tool Router session and execute Ocr web service actions with your Agent
```python
tools = session.tools
response = openai.responses.create(
  model='gpt-4.1',
  tools=tools,
  input=[{
    'role': 'user',
    'content': 'Extract text from this uploaded invoice image'
  }]
)
result = composio.provider.handle_tool_calls(
  response=response,
  user_id='your-user-id'
)
print(result)
```

```typescript
const tools = session.tools;
const response = await openai.responses.create({
  model: 'gpt-4.1',
  tools: tools,
  input: [{
    role: 'user',
    content: 'Extract text from this uploaded invoice image'
  }],
});
const result = await composio.provider.handleToolCalls(
  'your-user-id',
  response.output
);
console.log(result);
```

### Path 2: MCP Server Setup

#### Path 2, Step 1: Install Composio

Install the Composio SDK and Claude Agent SDK
```python
pip install composio claude-agent-sdk
```

```typescript
npm install @composio/core ai @ai-sdk/openai @ai-sdk/mcp
```

#### Path 2, Step 2: Create Tool Router Session

Initialize the Composio client and create a Tool Router session
```python
from composio import Composio
from claude_agent_sdk import ClaudeSDKClient, ClaudeAgentOptions

composio = Composio(api_key='your-composio-api-key')
session = composio.create(user_id='your-user-id')
url = session.mcp.url
```

```typescript
import { Composio } from '@composio/core';

const composio = new Composio({ apiKey: 'your-api-key' });

console.log("Creating Tool Router session...");
const { mcp } = await composio.create('your-user-id');
console.log(`Tool Router session created: ${mcp.url}`);
```

#### Path 2, Step 3: Connect to AI Agent

Use the MCP server with your AI agent
```python
import asyncio

options = ClaudeAgentOptions(
    permission_mode='bypassPermissions',
    mcp_servers={
        'tool_router': {
            'type': 'http',
            'url': url,
            'headers': {
                'x-api-key': 'your-composio-api-key'
            }
        }
    },
    system_prompt='You are a helpful assistant with access to Ocr web service tools.',
    max_turns=10
)

async def main():
    async with ClaudeSDKClient(options=options) as client:
        await client.query('Perform OCR on uploaded invoice image')
        async for message in client.receive_response():
            if hasattr(message, 'content'):
                for block in message.content:
                    if hasattr(block, 'text'):
                        print(block.text)

asyncio.run(main())
```

```typescript
import { openai } from '@ai-sdk/openai';
import { experimental_createMCPClient as createMCPClient } from '@ai-sdk/mcp';
import { generateText, stepCountIs } from 'ai';

const client = await createMCPClient({
  transport: {
    type: 'http',
    url: mcp.url,
    headers: { 'x-api-key': 'your-composio-api-key' }
  }
});

const tools = await client.tools();

const { text } = await generateText({
  model: openai('gpt-4o'),
  tools,
  messages: [{ role: 'user', content: 'Perform OCR on uploaded invoice image' }],
  stopWhen: stepCountIs( 5 )
});

console.log(`Agent: ${text}`);
```
