Cloud Vision

Adds a right-click menu item to images to detect text, labels and faces.

Cloud Vision is a powerful Chrome extension that integrates with the Google Cloud Vision API to enhance your image interactions. By right-clicking on any image in your browser, you can easily detect and copy text from images, label images with relevant terms, or outline faces detected within images.

This tool offers three main features: Text Detection copies detected text from images directly to your clipboard, Label Detection displays descriptive labels for better image understanding, and Face Detection outlines faces found in images for quick recognition. The extension is open source and available on GitHub, ensuring transparency and continuous improvement. Icons used in the extension are credited and licensed appropriately.

Great. But, whose API key is used now? I mean, who is paying for the API calls?
