that's a really cool use of tesseract.

one problem: the cropping cut off half the code sample I uploaded. not sure if that was due to the size of the image, the app didn't explain, but if cropping is not require don't require, if it is required explain why.

I did not realize there was a lot of code trapped in images either, it seems like there is a lot of formatted code support as raw text

This is cool, I quickly learned about some companies outside my region that I didn't know existed.

two other things 1. I get slightly > 1 similarity scores for exact matches for my ticker query. EX: AAPL -> 1.0000000000000007

2.It seems like it's matching exactly on ticker name. It would reduce some friction if I could search by company name as well. Then I wouldn't have to lookup the ticker every time I have a query!
