A self hostable no-cost (1000 images a month) reverse image search + text analysis telegram bot. A convenient way to look up things on your mobile screen.
Take a SS, forward to telegram bot, amuse yourself.
Mainly made out of the need for finding context/origin of memes while scrolling on social media :p

Reverse image search returns a guess label along with entities present (with accuracy %). Also returns links for pages containing matching image
Text analysis is done on both - text present on images and text sent by msg. Also returns entities and a sentiment analysis score per every block of text. Also contains google calender event link for any dates present and google map search link for any addresses
List of dominant colors are also returned along with an image containing those colors.
