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 Topdu/OpenOCR, 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.

- highreadme#1Clarify OpenOCR's scope in the README's opening
Why:
CURRENTOpenOCR is an open-source toolkit developed by the OCR team from FVL Lab, Fudan University, under the guidance of Prof. Yu-Gang Jiang and Prof. Zhineng Chen. It focuses on 「General-OCR」 tasks, including **Text Detection and Recognition, Formula and Table Recognition**, as well as **Document Parsing and Understanding**. The toolkit integrates a unified training and evaluation benchmark, commercial-grade OCR and Document Parsing systems, and faithful reproductions of the core implementations from a wide range of academic papers.
COPY-PASTE FIXOpenOCR is a comprehensive open-source toolkit for General-OCR research and applications, developed by the OCR team from FVL Lab, Fudan University. **It is not merely a wrapper for existing OCR engines like Tesseract, but a full-fledged platform** integrating a unified training and evaluation benchmark, commercial-grade OCR and Document Parsing systems, and faithful reproductions of core implementations from a wide range of academic papers. OpenOCR focuses on tasks including Text Detection and Recognition, Formula and Table Recognition, and Document Parsing and Understanding.
