About the tool

LensUp is a set of free browser tools for turning phone photos of paper into documents you can upload or print. You add photos or PDFs, pick an effect such as White document, Black and white or De-shadow, and export a PDF, JPG or PNG on A4, Letter or the original size. Corners are straightened automatically when page edges are clear, and an edge-finding model on your device suggests them when they are not, so you can adjust them by hand. Other tools compress a PDF or image toward a target such as 200 KB, place both sides of an ID card on one A4 sheet, crop passport photos with a white, blue or red background, and edit, merge, split or flatten PDFs. Image to Markdown reads printed text with OCR in 21 languages on your device, and PDF, Word and EPUB files can also be converted to Markdown. The free tools run in your browser without uploading files, need no sign-up and add no watermark. Optional cloud AI recognition sends only the pages you choose and deletes them after 24 hours. The site is available in 20 languages, and an MCP server helps AI agents find the right tool. Every tool is free, with files up to 50 MB and ads on the free version. LensUp Pro costs $8 a month or $70 a year, with a $39 yearly launch price until December 1, 2026, and adds batches of up to 50 images, larger files, 10 GB of private storage, share links and no ads. The first Pro payment can be refunded within 7 days. LensUp is run by Springtide Labs LLC in Delaware.
