AI and agent ingestion

PDF to Markdown for AI your agent can actually reason over

Give LLMs semantic headings, intact tables, lists, and formulas instead of a flattened text stream with missing relationships.

Standard Markdown keeps your content portable across models, agent frameworks, and vector stores.

Before and after

Make the source usable before the next workflow

Before
Agent reads raw PDF text
Columns mix, table values lose labels, hierarchy disappears, and answers become less reliable.
After
Agent reads Markdown

The model sees explicit headings, table syntax, lists, code, and formulas in a portable text format.

Why BlazeDocs

Structure you can use—not another text dump

Chunk by meaning
Markdown headings create natural semantic boundaries instead of arbitrary fixed-token cuts.
Keep retrieval context
Tables, lists, formulas, and hierarchy stay attached to the content your retriever embeds.
Agent-ready interfaces
Use REST, CLI, MCP, or the BlazeDocs agent skill with LangChain, LlamaIndex, and OpenAI tools.
Product walkthrough

Watch an agent use a structured document

See the same Markdown move from conversion into an AI question-answering workflow.

Developer quickstart

Start with one copy-pasteable request

The examples use the production API response shape and work with the tools already in your stack.

FAQ

Questions before you try it?

Answers about accuracy, pricing, security, and this workflow.

How accurate is BlazeDocs OCR?+

BlazeDocs uses Mistral AI OCR and preserves reading order, headings, tables, formulas, and lists. Clean text PDFs are near-perfect; difficult scans typically exceed 95% character accuracy.

How does BlazeDocs pricing work?+

The free plan includes three uploads per month with the first five pages of each file. Paid plans start at $9.99 per month for 500 pages, with API plans for production volume.

Are uploaded documents private?+

Documents are processed securely and are not used to train models. PDFs are handled in memory rather than permanently stored; review the security and privacy pages for current controls.

Why is Markdown better for AI than raw PDF text?+

Markdown exposes semantic structure directly in tokens: headings, lists, tables, code, and formulas remain recognizable to the model.

Which agents can use BlazeDocs?+

Any tool-using agent can call the REST API or CLI. BlazeDocs also provides MCP, an agent skill, and dedicated OpenClaw and Hermes workflows.
