## Description

Securely connect your AI agents and chatbots (Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, etc) with Ocrspace MCP or direct API to extract text from images, analyze PDF documents, summarize scanned receipts, and process photographed notes through natural language.

## Summary

Ocrspace is an OCR API that extracts text from images and PDFs in JSON format. Instantly turn visual content into searchable, usable data.

## Categories

- document & file management

## Toolkit Details

- Tools: 3

## Images

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

## Authentication

- **Api Key**
  - Type: `api_key`
  - Description: Api Key authentication for OCR.space.
  - Setup:
    - Configure Api Key credentials for OCR.space.
    - Use the credentials when creating an auth config in Composio.

## Suggested Prompts

- Extract text from a scanned receipt image
- Convert a PDF invoice to editable text
- Get all words from a business card photo
- Pull text from a screenshot of a document

## Supported Tools

| Tool slug | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `OCRSPACE_GET_CONVERSIONS` | Get Conversion Statistics | Retrieve OCR API conversion statistics and usage data (PRO accounts only). Returns the number of conversions for Engine1, Engine2, and total conversions. Data is updated once daily and shows conversions from start of month to end of yesterday. Free API keys will return 0 conversions. |
| `OCRSPACE_OCR_PARSE_IMAGE_POST` | Extract Text from Image/PDF (OCR) | Extract text from images and PDF documents using OCR (Optical Character Recognition). Supports 27 languages, table recognition, orientation detection, and word-level coordinate extraction. Provide exactly one of `file`, `url`, or `base64Image`; providing multiple or none triggers E301/OCRExitCode 99. Input can be provided as file upload, public URL, or base64-encoded data URI. Response is nested JSON; extract text from `ParsedResults[*].ParsedText`. Returns extracted text with optional overlay coordinates and searchable PDF generation. For poor-quality scans, enable both `detectOrientation` and `scale` and ensure `language` matches the document. |
| `OCRSPACE_PARSE_IMAGE_URL` | Extract Text from Image URL (GET) | Extract text from images via URL using simplified GET endpoint. Only supports URL-based submissions - no file uploads or base64 encoding. Faster and simpler than POST endpoint for basic use cases. |

## 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 Ocrspace Tools via Tool Router with Your Agent

Get tools from Tool Router session and execute Ocrspace actions with your Agent
```python
tools = session.tools
response = openai.responses.create(
  model='gpt-4.1',
  tools=tools,
  input=[{
    'role': 'user',
    'content': 'Extract all text from this uploaded receipt 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 all text from this uploaded receipt 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 Ocrspace tools.',
    max_turns=10
)

async def main():
    async with ClaudeSDKClient(options=options) as client:
        await client.query('Extract all text from this image file')
        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: 'Extract all text from this image file' }],
  stopWhen: stepCountIs( 5 )
});

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