What is TextMuncher?

TextMuncher is a browser extension and web app that extracts text from ebooks you're reading in the browser. The extension automates page-turning and screenshot capture in Kindle Cloud Reader, then built-in OCR converts the captured pages into clean, plain text — ready to paste into ChatGPT, Claude, study notes, or research documents. The first 30 pages are free; Pro is $9.99/month for unlimited automated capture.

The web app at textmuncher.com also accepts manual screenshots from any browser-based reading platform, plus EPUB files you own — EPUB extraction reads the exact text straight from the file — no OCR involved. Speed mode — the default for everyone — processes OCR locally in your browser. Optional Pro Quality mode sends only hard-to-read pages for a cloud second pass.

Cloud eBook Readers Block Everything

Copy-Paste Is Blocked

DRM restrictions block text selection and copy-paste in Kindle Cloud Reader and other platforms.

Manual Screenshots Take Hours

Screenshotting every page of a 300-page book is painfully slow and tedious.

One-Page OCR Tools Are Limited

Most OCR tools process one image at a time with no batch capability.

AI Tools Need Text, Not Images

ChatGPT and Claude produce better results with clean text input than with screenshot images.

Finally Use Your Kindle Books With AI

Automated Capture

The browser extension turns pages and takes screenshots automatically. Completely hands-free.

Batch Processing

Process entire chapters at once with 4 parallel OCR workers. No one-page-at-a-time limits.

Minutes, Not Hours

A 300-page book takes 10-15 minutes. Manual screenshotting would take 2+ hours.
