Research Markdown for humans and agents
Turn papers into reusable Markdown.
Paper in. Structured markdown out. Ready for the next agent step.

Turn papers into structured Markdown
Evidence-preserving Markdown, figure folders, translated outputs, fallback ZIPs when needed, and workflow handoffs that your next agent step can actually use.
Use translation only when needed, while keeping the Markdown auditable and ready for downstream review or synthesis.
Connect Mdtero to the agent you already use
One key. Four agents.
Hand it off to your next agent step
Move straight into summarization, review drafting, weekly discovery loops, or your own research automation.
Start here
What comes in, what gets normalized, what your agent can reuse next
The middle of the page now reads as three connected proof strips so the boundaries between intake, normalization, and reuse stay legible.
What comes in
Start in Account for keyword discovery, API-key management, and agent handoff; use the local helper as the default acquisition path, and bring in the API or Chrome or Edge only when automation or a supported live paper page needs browser capture.
- DOI, paper page, preprint, or local file
- Local Helper
- Browser Extension
What gets normalized
Get Markdown, figure links, semantic filenames, and machine-usable task results instead of a fragile one-off scrape.

Workflow
Acquisition to structuring to handoff, without the card shelf in the middle
A paper goes in. Reusable Markdown comes out.
Weekly Discovery
Acquisition
Start from a DOI, a supported paper page, arXiv, or a local file.
Use Mdtero's keyword discovery to filter by topic, year, venue, and open-access status, then parse only the papers you actually want to read.
Search for recent thermochemical energy storage papers, filter to open-access review articles after 2022, then send the best candidates through Mdtero and return a shortlist with one-line notes.Start in AccountTranslation
Structuring
Get Markdown, figure links, semantic filenames, and machine-usable task results instead of a fragile one-off scrape.
Run Mdtero's built-in translation on top of the parsed Markdown and keep the same sections, figures, and references in the target-language copy.
Parse this paper with Mdtero, run the built-in Chinese translation, and return the translated Markdown with the same section, figure, and reference anchors preserved.See demo outputLiterature Review
Handoff
Move straight into summarization, review drafting, weekly discovery loops, or your own research automation.
Once papers share the same Markdown structure, your agent can compare claims, extract methods, and draft a review without wrestling with format drift.
Compare these Mdtero Markdown files, group them by method and evidence type, then draft a literature review outline with citations back to each paper.Start in Account
Desktop Preview
Use the GUI when you want a guided research workspace
The desktop preview turns Discovery and Notebook into one calmer workspace for researchers who do not want to live in the CLI, while keeping the same backend and Markdown-first product core.
Public preview only for now. Use it when you want the guided shell, project tree, and local source-API settings without changing the underlying Mdtero parse chain.
Desktop for guided work
Use the GUI when you want projects, folders, paper review, task tracking, and Markdown preview in one place.
Account, helper, and extension still own acquisition
The GUI is a friendlier surface, not a replacement for browser capture, helper execution, or account-level setup.
API and CLI still stay automation-first
If you want scripts, pipelines, or product integration, keep using the API and CLI instead of forcing the desktop app to become everything at once.
