| 9 | +- Fast local OCR using DeepSeek-OCR integration |
| 10 | +- Copy recognized text to the clipboard |
| 11 | +- Simple macOS-native UI written in Swift |
| 12 | + |
| 13 | +## Requirements |
| 14 | +- macOS 11.0+ (Big Sur or later) |
| 15 | +- Xcode 13 or newer for building from source |
| 16 | +- (Optional) Any required model files or dependencies for DeepSeek-OCR — see project code for details |
