About This Tool

Deskew automatically detects and corrects skewed scanned pages - straightening content that was fed into the scanner at an angle. Add it to scans and OCR pipelines for cleaner results.

Slightly rotated pages look sloppy and confuse OCR. Deskew fixes the angle so text is level and reading is effortless.

Everything runs locally in your browser, keeping your scans private and the tool free.
