Questions about Free API Keys Usage and On-Premise Deployment

OCR.space Free OCR API

Hello OCR.Space Support Team,

I have two questions regarding the use of your service.

1. Free API keys and IP address

I currently have two separate applications running on the same VPS, which means they share the same public IP address.

Is it allowed to use two different free API keys from the same IP address, assuming each application uses its own key?

I saw this topic but what is ment under “as long as you do not overdo it”?

2. On-Premise solution

I am also interested in your On-Premise OCR solution.

Could you please clarify:

• Do you provide official documentation or a guide for deploying the on-premise version? Is Docker config available?

• Is the on-premise solution paid, and if so, how does the licensing/pricing model work?

Thanks for asking. Using two or three free OCR API keys is absolutely no problem.

But in the past we had a few users that signed up for 30(!) or even more free api keys in order to avoid purchasing a PRO license. That would be an example of overdoing it.

  • Only paid version available, intended for enterprise OCR use
  • No docker support currently

Thanks a lot for your answers

up for 30(!) or even more

Wow. They were very persistent to create so many. I wouldn’t have so much patience.
