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.

Hi HackerNews, Lately, I have seen an explosion in posts offering paid APIs/services to get unstructured data into LLMs (i.e. langchain extract, ragflow, unstructured, unstract, just to name a few) and I have been largely disappointed by them, either because they fail to implement multimodal support, fail to give good context for "really tricky" PDFs / Word docs / Powerpoints, or are just plain difficult to use. In light of all these posts I figured I'd share my solution that has been working smoothly for me and my clients. I put it up on GitHub for free so you can check it…

Hi! Been working on DialtoneApp, a free domain scanning tool to see how your site does with all the new rules for AI SEO. Also known as AEO (Answer Engine Optimization) or GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) the A can also stand for "Agent"! It's a whole new world out there and we haven't even gotten to agents.json files and the new "b2b" (bot to bot) commerce part. But there are some standards starting to take shape with llms.txt and using things like: on all your html pages to have this other markdown version. We list the top 300 sites in terms of how well they follow all the new rules.…

I feel like LLMs can help me understand anything. However, after I get a summary, I can't dive in to parts that I find interesting; can't refer to original source easily and can't control context with chatbots. This is an attempt to solve for a complete knowledge consumption experience with AI . Please give me feedback!

Hi HN, I'm excited to share TXT OS — an open-source AI reasoning engine that runs entirely inside a single `.txt` file. - No installs, no signup, no hidden code — just copy-paste the file into any LLM chat window (GPT, Claude, Gemini, etc.). - +22.4% semantic accuracy, +42.1% reasoning success, and 3.6× more stability (benchmarked on GSM8K and Truthful-QA). - Features Semantic Tree Memory, Hallucination Shield, and fully exportable logic. - MIT Licensed, zero tracking, zero ads. Why did I build this? I wanted to prove that advanced reasoning and memory could be made open, portable, and…

Hey HN, solo dev here. After years of frustration with how LLMs handle complex documents, especially PDFs with tables, I decided to build a solution myself. My approach uses a Markdown conversion step to preserve the table structure, which seems to work surprisingly well for chunking. This little parser is the first public piece of a much larger, privacy-focused AI platform I'm building. I'm pretty much running on fumes financially, so any feedback, critique, or support is massively appreciated. Happy to answer any questions about the approach!
