Scans, photos, and PDFs, made into real documents

From paper
to polished.

Gleamdoc reads your scans and hands you a clean document to edit, style, share, and ask about. The original stays one click away.

Bring in anything with words on it

  • Markdown
  • PowerPoint
  • EPUB
  • Web pages
  • your phone's camera, or a blank page

How it works

A minute from a photo to a document.

  1. Bring it in

    A PDF, photos, or pages from your phone.

  2. Gleamdoc reads it

    Tables and equations too, without rewording you.

  3. Check it side by side

    Fix any line by hand or with AI.

  4. Make it yours, send it

    Pick a theme, then export or share a link.

Or start with words

Already written? Skip to polished.

Paste a draft from ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini, write in Markdown, or import a Word file. Same themes and share links as a scan, and no credits.

Ask it

Answers, with the page.
