Overview

AI-generated overview

Extracts text from images and scanned PDFs via an Apify-hosted OCR actor, billed to the caller's Apify account.

What it does
This remote MCP server exposes an Apify actor that performs OCR on images and scanned PDFs, returning the recognized text to the assistant. It runs as a hosted endpoint at mcp.apify.com, so no local package is installed. Runs are billed per event to the Apify account that authorizes the call.
When to use it
Use it when an assistant needs to read text out of image files or scanned documents that have no embedded text layer, for example receipts, screenshots, or photographed pages. It is a reasonable choice if you already use Apify and want OCR without running your own model.
Requirements
A remote MCP client that supports streamable HTTP, connecting to the Apify endpoint. An Apify account is needed because runs are billed to it. Authentication is either an Authorization header with a Bearer Apify token or an OAuth sign-in through the client; no environment variables are declared.
Before you install
The Authorization header carries an Apify token, which is a credential and should be treated as a secret. Usage is billed to your Apify account, so costs accrue per run. Uploaded images and PDFs are sent to Apify's hosted service for processing, so avoid submitting sensitive documents unless that is acceptable.
