Unrelated, but I recently had to archive some docs and photos and had to start looking for a solid scanner client / OCR software. Prizmo Pro for Mac is incredible, and was one of the only OCR apps I could find that utilized a local RNN.

It’s results are nearly perfect and fast, 3-4x as accurate as adobe acrobat and easily 6-7x the speed.

Even as a dev it blows me away things like OCR running locally on a MacBook has come this far.

Hasn't the big name in that space (Abbyy Finereader) always been local?
