use case

search for a "meme image" with a specific text

such images are hard to discover because

the filename is useless (kfDFFDio.png)
such images are usually shared without text/title/caption/subtitles/comment/context

challenges

allow user-feedback to fix scanned text
auto-detect language, select appropriate dictionary for spell-checking
recognize meme templates like all the things
