About

CamToCode is a web application that turns your phone camera into a code scanner built specifically for developers and students. Unlike generic OCR apps, it preserves indentation, brackets, and programming symbols using AI Vision OCR (Quick, Standard, Smart, and Precision tiers). Scan Python, JavaScript, Java, C++, and 15+ languages from laptop screens, whiteboards, or printed notes. Auto Re-capture merges long files across multiple camera captures. Scan & Answer and Instant Answer handle MCQs and exam questions. Exports save to cloud history with view, edit, delete, and social share. Scroll Automation is a unique free tool: open a local file in the browser and auto-scroll sections while the phone captures — no install, no API, ideal for corporate laptops that block extensions. Free tier available. Paid plans from $5/month.
