Action plan is what to do next — copy-pasteable changes prioritized by impact. Category visibility is the real GEO test: when a user asks an AI a brand-free question that should surface CatchTheTornado/text-extract-api, does the AI actually recommend you — or your competitors? Objective checks verify the metadata signals AI engines weight first. Self-mention check detects whether AI even knows you exist by name.
Action plan — copy-paste fixes
3 prioritized changes generated by gemini-2.5-flash. Mark items done after you ship the fix.
- highreadme#1Reposition the README H1 to emphasize API, self-hostable, and LLM features
Why:
CURRENT# text-extract-api Convert any image, PDF or Office document to Markdown *text* or JSON structured document with super-high accuracy, including tabular data, numbers or math formulas.
COPY-PASTE FIX# text-extract-api A self-hostable, privacy-centric API for converting any image, PDF, or Office document to structured Markdown or JSON. It leverages state-of-the-art local OCRs and open-source LLMs (like Ollama-supported models) for high-accuracy extraction, PII removal, and anonymization.
- mediumabout#2Refine the 'About' description for clarity and conciseness
Why:
CURRENTDocument (PDF, Word, PPTX ...) extraction and parse API using state of the art modern OCRs + Ollama supported models. Anonymize documents. Remove PII. Convert any document or picture to structured JSON or Markdown
COPY-PASTE FIXA self-hostable, privacy-centric API for advanced document processing: extract structured JSON/Markdown from PDFs, Office docs, and images using local OCRs and Ollama-supported LLMs. Includes PII removal and anonymization.
- mediumreadme#3Add a 'Comparison' section to the README to differentiate from basic OCR tools
Why:
COPY-PASTE FIX## Why text-extract-api? (vs. Tesseract, PaddleOCR, PDFMiner) Unlike basic OCR libraries or PDF parsers, `text-extract-api` is a complete, self-hostable API solution. It integrates multiple OCR engines with open-source LLMs (Ollama) to not just extract raw text, but to convert documents into structured JSON or Markdown, enhance OCR accuracy, and perform PII removal. It's designed for developers needing a production-ready, privacy-focused document processing backend, not just a command-line tool.
