Overview

Built for real puzzles from newspapers, apps, and photos: upload a PNG, JPG, or WEBP, run extraction, review the grid, and solve in one flow. OpenCV runs locally for board detection; a tuned digit pipeline reads each cell from the photo.

Works best on digital boards. Extraction is tuned for screenshots of digital Sudoku — clean black-and-white grids with standard fonts — where it reads existing numbers reliably before you hit Solve.
