You may want to search the forum for some techniques, according to whether this is:
1. HTML text in a Web browser => Could look for JavaScript approaches in AHK (some by teadrinker)
2. Text in a program's control =>
ControlGetText (an AHK command)
3. An image => OCR (AHK scripts or libraries such as FindText, OCR, Vis2)
Good luck!
