# Scan Photo

> Scan a photo of paper into a clean, flattened scan in the browser. Upload the picture, remove shadows, export a PDF. Free, no app install.

Scan photo from your camera roll, not from a flatbed. This tool finds the sheet inside the picture, flattens it, and exports a file a form will accept. No four-corner cropping, no app install.


The free path is 1 scan per day and the result includes a watermark. Pro removes the daily cap and the watermark.

## Scan a photo without a scanner

You do not need a flatbed. The phone already captured the page. Upload that camera-roll file, wait for the sheet to be found, and export. Bound books still belong on a hardware scanner.

## What the scan photo step changes

The export is a flattened, high-contrast page a form will accept. Desk edges and lamp shadows are reduced. Wrapping the original JPEG in a PDF leaves the snapshot unchanged.

## Scan photos of a document stack

Free jobs are one image at a time. Pro stacks up to 15 pages in a single export — reorder them before you start so the file reads in order.
