Music OCR is in general in a pretty terrible state these days (I’ve tried most of the options on the market). I’ve heard good things about soundslice[1] though, but I haven’t had the occasion to try it yet.

Hello, I lead the creation of the Soundslice music scanning tool! My biased opinion is that we get much better results than other tools, even though it's still in beta and doesn't support the full range of notations we aim to support.

We're using machine learning instead of old-school image processing techniques (which are fast but can be very brittle).

Thanks, but ugh: It's Web-based.
