TapScanner vs Zoho Scanner

TapScanner is a document scanning and PDF service for Android, iOS, and the web. Its mobile apps capture and arrange paper documents as PDFs for sharing or export, with automatic capture, OCR, searchable output, and multipage support. The browser workspace includes 46 PDF tools for tasks such as compressing, merging, splitting, converting, editing, signing, recognizing text, and protecting files. The first eligible web task can be completed before sign-in, and the site says its web tools require no installation. The Free plan costs nothing and allows three completed tasks per day after sign-in, with up to 25 files, 100 MB, and 500 pages per task. Premium costs $39.99 per year, billed once a year, and has a 7-day trial for eligible accounts. It allows up to 100 files and 1 GB per task, with no plan page cap or daily job cap subject to fair-use protection. Premium also includes OCR, text editing, repair, compare, forms, automation, and AI tools. Web Premium does not include the separately available mobile app Premium.
