    OCRmyPDF adds an OCR text layer to scanned PDF files, allowing them to be searched

  • I’ve used ocrmypdf in the past. If you’re at all comfortable in the command line, that’s my recommendation — it works great and can even de-skew scanned pages.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
