Document to Markdown
PDF/DOCX/XLSX to markdown + RAG chunks, $0.001/page; failed files never charged.
What it does
Document to Markdown is an MCP server, a connector that lets an AI assistant use it as a tool. It is hosted: an assistant connects to it over the internet, nothing to install.
From the publisher's description, Electra Index matched it to 3 capabilities: document understanding, knowledge base qa and spreadsheet automation. That makes it a candidate for tasks such as answer questions from internal documents or fact-check a document.
Facts come from the Official MCP Registry, as declared by the publisher. Capabilities are matched automatically (low confidence). None of this is a test of the tool.

Electra Index connected to the hosted endpoint 2h agoREACHABLE The endpoint answered but asks for an API key or a sign-in before connecting. Electra Index never sends credentials, so the tool list is not visible here.
What "online" means: the server answered an MCP connection at the time of the check. It is not a guarantee of security, quality or continuous uptime. How we test: we open an MCP session and ask for the tool list, as an AI assistant would. We never run a tool and never send a key. Checked every few days. Method
Is this your server? Monitoring Pro: a check every 30 minutes and an email within the hour when it stops answering. Launch offer: $39.99 once, for life.
