Google Lens OCR Scraper - Image to Text, Handwriting API

Extract text from an image with the same engine that powers Google Lens. This image to text API sends your images to the Google Lens crupload endpoint, reads the text back, and returns it as clean full text plus word-level bounding boxes. No browser, no OCR model to host, no GPU.
