If you’re dealing with receipts or invoices, InvoiceNet is a niche lib for financial data extraction. Not perfect, but better than rolling your own parser.
For how to make python read picture of financial data, also check out Google’s Vision API—it’s pricey but scary accurate.

Wow, thanks everyone! Didn’t expect so many options. Tried EasyOCR + OpenCV and it’s *way* better than Tesseract alone.
Quick Q: Anyone got a trick for handling skewed scans? My docs are kinda crooked and it’s messing with the OCR.
(Also, Tabula looks dope—gonna test that next.)
