Instead of MinerU

MinerU alternatives

MinerU is free, open-source software for parsing documents, maintaining a local document library, and connecting conversion tools with applications and agents. It accepts PDFs, office files, images, EPUB, HTML, spreadsheets, and other formats. Its shared model exports Markdown, HTML, LaTeX, DOCX, EPUB, PDF, and structured content. Flash, Basic, Standard, and Advanced tiers address different quality and compute needs. Python, HTTP API, command-line, WebUI, MCP, and agent integrations support web, desktop, API, and self-hosted workflows. OCR, batch conversion, citation locators, and local processing add practical coverage.
