jscanify is an open-source pure JavaScript document scanning library powered by OpenCV.js. It detects and highlights documents in images and extracts them with perspective distortion correction, running in the browser, NodeJS, or React.

Use cases

  • scan documents from images in the browser
  • detect and highlight paper in a photo
  • extract and undistort a document from a camera image
  • build a mobile-style document scanner web app
  • process scanned document images in NodeJS

When to choose

  • you need client-side document scanning without a paid SDK
  • you want a lightweight JavaScript library for paper detection and perspective correction
  • you need it to run in browser, NodeJS, or React with the same API

When to avoid

  • you need full OCR text extraction rather than image extraction
  • you need native mobile performance or advanced scanning features like multi-page PDF export
  • your project cannot load the OpenCV.js dependency
