# Aspose.OCR Cloud for Python SDK 24.8.0
Aspose.OCR Cloud is an optical character recognition as a service. With it, you can easily add OCR functionality to almost any device or platform, including netbooks, mini PCs, or even entry-level smartphones.
Our engine can read text from images, photos, screenshots and scanned PDFs in a wide variety of European, Cyrillic and Oriental fonts, returning results in the most popular document formats. Powerful built-in image processing filters based on neural networks automatically correct skewed and distorted images, automatically remove dirt, smudges, scratches, glare and other image defects that can affect recognition accuracy. To further improve the results, Aspose.OCR Cloud has a built-in spell checker that automatically replaces misspelled words and saves you the trouble of manually correcting the recognition results.
Even the complex recognition tasks can be done with a couple of API calls. To make interacting with Aspose.OCR Cloud services from Python applications even easier, we provide the software development kit (SDK) for Python. It handles all the routine operations such as establishing connections, sending API requests, and parsing responses, wrapping all these tasks into a few simple classes.
Aspose.OCR Cloud SDK for Python is open source under the MIT license. You can freely use it for any projects, including commercial and proprietary applications, as well as modify any part of its code.
