The document chain,
end to end.
Point your phone β or any desktop scanner β at a page, and Eigen Scanner does the rest: capture, cleanup, powerful OCR, structuring, and export. Printed or handwritten. Text or music. One capture in, structured knowledge out β straight into EigenVertex.
A complete β and flexible β documentary pipeline.
Every stage is optional. Ingest a raw capture, clean it in staging first, or recognise it as text or music. You choose the route; Eigen Scanner runs it.

Every capture, cleaned before it counts.
Real captures are crooked, shadowed, cluttered. Staging fixes all of it automatically β so the recognition engine reads a pristine page, not a photo of your desk. This is where scan quality becomes recognition accuracy.
- Deskew & perspective β a page shot at any angle is flattened to a true, front-facing rectangle.
- Smart crop β the document is isolated cleanly from its background.
- Object eraser β fingers, staples, shadows and stray marks wiped out.
- Enhance β contrast and lighting normalised for maximum legibility.
Handwritten notes, finally machine-readable.
Most scanners surrender at cursive. Eigen Scanner's OCR β powered by Mistral β reads printed and handwritten text alike, turning years of paper notebooks into searchable, structured, queryable knowledge.
- Cursive & print β mixed handwriting handled in a single pass.
- Layout aware β margins, columns and annotations preserved.
- Straight to your graph β recognised text flows into EigenVertex, ready to query.
Sheet music becomes real, playable notation.
Eigen Scanner doesn't stop at text β it understands music. Optical Music Recognition reads a printed or handwritten score and reconstructs it as editable, playable notation, exported as standard MusicXML (and MIDI).
- Full OMR engine β staves, clefs, notes, rests and dynamics recognised (Audiveris).
- MusicXML & MIDI β open standards, ready for any score editor or DAW.
- Rendered & verified β the recognised score is re-engraved on screen for side-by-side checking.
One scan. Every format you need.
From a single capture, export clean, structured results β from portable Markdown to elegant publish-ready HTML, and MusicXML for scores.
