Mistral claims SOTA performance on OlmOCRBench, a popular optical character recognition benchmark, but that isn't the case.
We have a public leaderboard on @huggingface, where Mistral OCR 4 currently ranks #3, behind open models like Chandra OCR 2 by @datalabto

@_akhaliq Unlimited OCR'ın dil modeli ile çalışmasının asıl avantajı burada — kütüphaneler ve arşivlerde yığın halinde yanlış tanınan belgeleri toplu düzeltebiliyor, önceki OCR motorlarının %30-40'lık hata oranını çok altına çekiyor.
