An information processing apparatus includes: a first extracting unit that extracts a position of a character entry box in an input image; a recognizing unit that recognizes a character string written in the character entry box; a calculating unit that calculates recognition accuracy of each of characters of the character string recognized by the recognizing unit; a first detector that detects that a value based on the recognition accuracy is equal to or larger than a preset threshold value; a second extracting unit that extracts a position of a circumscribed rectangle for each character of the character string in the input image; a second detector that detects contact of the circumscribed rectangle with the character entry box; and a display that displays the character string to be corrected on the basis of a result of detection by the first detector and a result of detection by the second detector.
