Introducing Gemini 3.0 Support in FromThePage -- December 11, 2025
Google just released a new LLM model -- Gemini 3.0 -- that is very good at handwritten text recognition.
Historian and AI researcher Mark Humphrey’s analysis convinced us this was more important than any of the models we’ve seen in the last two years:
First, what I’ve found is that the model is more reliable. We can see this on handwriting performance especially as our tests confirm it is now operating below a 1% error rate.
If this result holds, LLMs are getting good enough to be trusted in the way we might trust knowledgeable, trained humans on similar knowledge-work tasks. If true, that has enormous implications for what I do as a historian and how humanity relates to information.
We believe this is going to be a game changer for historical document transcription. We worked furiously to build an integration that would be ready when Gemini 3.0 launched – launching for a limited set of customers the day after Google announced its availability.
If you’d like to learn more about what we’ve built, why we built it, and what the results are showing so far, we’d love for you to join us.
