MarkItDown is Microsoft's lightweight Python utility for converting files to Markdown for use with LLMs and text-analysis pipelines, and this repository includes the markitdown-mcp package that exposes the converter through MCP. It converts PDF, PowerPoint, Word, Excel, images (EXIF metadata and OCR), audio (EXIF metadata and speech transcription), HTML, text-based formats such as CSV, JSON, and XML, ZIP files, YouTube URLs, and EPUBs, preserving document structure such as headings, lists, tables, and links.
