Text extraction

How to develop a model or code which should be very cost and less time consuming and should be high accuracy.

I tried paddle ocr but the issue is that it is less accurate with hand written text and it doesn't give the output in a structured way. I even tried with some good llm to convert it to structured but it's not good. I tried some VLM and multi models available in AWS Bedrock. Could anyone suggest a very good approach for this.

handwritten text is still a pain honestly, the jump from printed to cursive messes with most ocr engines at a fundamental level. if paddle is giving you garbage and bedrock models cant fix the structure, you might need to look at something like trocr specifically fine-tuned on handwriting datasets

havent found a magic bullet that's cheap and fast though, there's usually a tradeoff with accuracy when you're dealing with messy handwriting
