Hi everyone, Today I’d like to introduce you to the new Quivr project. It a simple python package, API that helps you take in documents such as PDFs, Docx, PPTx, ... and turn them into Markown It has several new abilities: * OCR * Vision Models * Table Optimization in the extraction * Open-source You can use it in any of your products where you need to parse file to then send them to an LLM or simply store it Here is how to get started: * Go to https://github.com/QuivrHQ/MegaP... * pip install megaparse * Have fun Give it a try! We’d love to hear your feedback and ideas in the comments. This is part of Supabase mega Launch Week -> https://launchweek.dev/HOME

Comment highlights

Love it. Markdown is becoming the de-facto in AI input processing, and proper conversion to it (without having to install a million packages) will be paramount.

Megaparse sounds super useful for prepping docs for LLMs! Love the flexibility with Python, API, or queue. Does it handle complex layouts or metadata well?

Megaparse is a really interesting tool for LLM data ingestion! 🔥 How does it handle parsing complex document structures, like multi-column layouts or mixed content (text, images, tables)? Does the OCR integration maintain accuracy across different fonts and handwriting? Also, how does the API handle large-scale batch processing—are there any optimizations for speed and efficiency with extensive datasets?

Congrats on the launch @stan_girard @amine_dirhoussi @chloe_daems Super helpful. We are working on a product that needs something similar though we have already solved the PDF parsing problem. Quick question - do you plan to add Excel / Spreadsheet as well? This would be super helpful. Excited to give it a try!

There's such a huge need for this. It seems like every other week I meet someone asks me about how to get structured data from a PDF with LLMs.

Awesome tool with Megaparse! 📄✨ The ability to seamlessly parse PDFs, DOCX, and PPTX for LLM ingestion is a game-changer for data extraction. I'm curious—how does Megaparse handle complex document layouts or non-standard formats? For example, if a document has lots of embedded images or custom fonts, does it still maintain accuracy in parsing? Also, what kind of customization options do you offer for different document types or use cases?

Congrats on the launch! Megaparse looks like a game-changer for parsing docs into Markdown format. What types of files do you find it works best with?

Really nice! Open source, with OCR and table optimization, perfect for LLM workflows. Congrats to the team! 🙌

Wow, this looks super handy for integrating document parsing into LLM workflows! 🚀 Love that it's open-source and includes OCR + table optimization—makes it a no-brainer for anyone working with complex document data. Can't wait to test it out! 🔥

Love the idea, it's actually exactly what we need. And open source on top of it all ... 😚

Everyone that went through the pain of parsing slides and pdf know how big a problem that solves ;) GG team!
