Pix2Text is an open-source Python tool that recognizes layouts, tables, math formulas (LaTeX), and text in images and converts them into Markdown, supporting 80+ languages. It uses small PyTorch models and serves as a free alternative to Mathpix.
Use cases
- convert math formula images to latex
- ocr scanned documents to markdown
- extract tables from images
- convert pdf pages with formulas to markdown
- free mathpix alternative
- recognize text in 80+ languages from images
- layout analysis of document images
When to choose
- you need to convert images or PDFs containing math formulas into editable LaTeX or Markdown
- you want a free, self-hosted alternative to Mathpix
- you need multilingual OCR combined with layout and table recognition in one pipeline
When to avoid
- you need production-grade OCR for plain text only with minimal dependencies
- you cannot run Python/PyTorch or lack GPU resources for the models
- you need a fully managed cloud OCR API with SLAs
