Thank you! That's a great suggestion

Definitely thanks for asking! Traditional OCRs are good at transcribing typed notes (e.g. pdfs) to editable docs, but do poorly with handwriting. The best OCRs I've seen can make a…

Fair point :)

Thanks! I was at LensCrafters the other day and had to fill out a paper form that someone input into a computer by hand, so definitely see the need there. Our goal is to get a high…

We'll do our best ;)

Thanks for the catch! We uploaded an updated version of the video here https://youtu.be/gYPWjYDsRyk

Thanks Brad! It was a great call out and something we should've seen before posting. Appreciate the feedback

Hey! We wanted to show how the product works if notes are delivered instantly - vs. the current 10-30 sec lag time we experience between note being snapped, and the transcribed cop…

thanks for the question! It handles that kind of script pretty well, mainly because we had a good amount of training examples from college student handwriting

Thank you for the question! Currently, it's a combination of the two, mainly because people often take notes hastily so word-based recognition coupled with spell check allow you to…

Thanks for commenting! Adding digital handwriting support is a great idea. I actually think other companies do it pretty well, which is why we didn't go down that route. The reason…

Good call out, we'll edit the video description

Yep, that's fair. We staged the google doc bc there is still a 10-30 sec lag time in sending the note out, we'll fix it up. Thank you for the call out!

Thank you for commenting! ML / NN have been around for a while, but there are a few reasons Scribble is only possible now: 1) Although classifying MNIST digits is the "hello world"…

Thank you! Really appreciate your support

Scribble doesn't transcribe hand drawn figures yet. I used to be a physics student and always had to draw plots / equations by hand, so it's definitely a feature I would love to se…

great suggestion! We love Rocketbook

Thank you for the comment! We don't have a developer facing API at the moment but it's in the roadmap. Once our algorithm is accurate enough that it "just works" in an enterprise s…

We did two things to train it (1) scraped the web for photographs of handwritten notes with known transcription to build our training dataset (2) had our university friends / stude…

Thank you for the comment! We don't have a developer facing API at the moment but it's in the roadmap. Once our algorithm is accurate enough that it "just works" in an enterprise s…

That's a great question. It currently happens in the cloud (purely a software design decision), but we could probably do it locally as well since the NN is already trained. We were…
