I've developed a Python API service that uses GPT-4o for OCR on PDFs. It features parallel processing and batch handling for improved performance. Not only does it convert PDF to markdown, but it also describes the images within the PDF using captions like `[Image: This picture shows 4 people waving]`. In testing with NASA's Apollo 17 flight documents, it successfully converted complex, multi-oriented pages into well-structured Markdown. The project is open-source and available on GitHub. Feedback is welcome.

I needed a way to quickly turn my technical notes into DOCX files for non-tech colleagues, so I built MD To. Goal was simple: Clean UI, fast conversion, and reliable formatting. Would love to hear what features you'd like to see next (e.g., custom CSS templates or batch processing).

Hey HN, Sharing a web app I built for converting PDFs to Markdown. I was tired of broken tables and formulas, so I focused on making sure those elements (along with headings and text) convert cleanly. Features: Preserves headings, text flow, formulas, and table structure. Online editor for post-conversion tweaks. Doesn't store your PDF content or generated Markdown (privacy focused). Try 10 pages anon, or 50 pages/month free when logged in. (Unlimited plans available, same quality). It's live here: https://pdftomarkdown.pro/ Let me know if you have any feedback or run…

Hey HN I built MarkdownConverters.com — a tool that converts any file format (PDF, DOCX, PPTX, HTML, or URL) into clean, structured Markdown. I often needed to prep documents, reports, or scraped pages for AI pipelines, documentation, or version control, but existing tools either broke formatting, lost code blocks, or produced unreadable Markdown. So I built something that focuses on: • Accurate structure (headings, lists, tables, code, links) • Consistent Markdown output ready for LLMs or docs • Fast, browser-based conversion with privacy-friendly processing • Support for multi-format and…

If you just want to use it, try here - https://pdf2md.trieve.ai . I think the LLM's are astoundingly good at converting complex powerpoint style infographics. I wouldn't normally think folks on HN would find this interesting as the general concept has been posted about already in the past few months. We were heavily inspired by Zerox[1]. However, the stack we went with was fun and over-engineered which is more likely to create interesting discussion. We use all the same tools at Trieve (our main product), but wanted to see if they would be a good fit for something that needed to…
