MinerU

MinerU parses PDFs, Office files, images, and web URLs into structured outputs for agent and RAG workflows. Developers and research teams can use the extracted text, tables, formulas, and chemistry data in downstream applications.

Who it's for

  • Developers building agent workflows who need document parsing with MCP support.
  • Teams preparing mixed-format documents for RAG pipelines or knowledge bases.
  • Scientific and chemistry research teams extracting formulas, molecule structures, and reaction information from papers.

How it fits your workflow

Provide MinerU with a PDF, Word, PowerPoint, Excel file, image, or web URL. It extracts text and visual content while retaining context and layout structure.

Use the resulting Markdown, JSON, CSV, HTML, LaTeX, or MathML in an agent workflow or RAG data pipeline. The page names MCP, Dify, Notion, and OpenClaw among its agent-related support and export options.
