The Markdown LLM Advantage
Why Markdown? Passing raw PDFs to Large Language Models consumes massive amounts of your context window and drops crucial structural semantics. Mdtero's Markdown instantly reduces token usage by up to 80% while perfectly preserving tables, math equations, and bibliography linkages. It's the ultimate AI-native research format.
Supported Sources
Works today with Elsevier and arXiv
Start from publisher pages or preprints, then keep the same Markdown-first workflow across both supported routes.
Preprints with paper assets, figure-aware extraction, and the same downstream agent workflow.
Proof
Cleaner than raw XML, closer to how researchers actually read
Mdtero focuses on practical outputs: cleaned sections, image folders, source file access, and AI-ready Markdown that stays close to the paper.
Outputs
ZIP, PDF, XML, and translation
Free source-file access for PDF and XML. Paid parsing and translation outputs for users who want the full Markdown workflow.
