Turn any PDF, image, DOCX, or PPTX into clean... Markdown! Production workloads contain millions of pages, mixed formats, inconsistent layouts, low-quality scans, and documents written in dozens of languages. Datalab Marker v2 (open-source with 40k stars) handles that workload at scale through one open-source document parsing pipeline. It recovers: - Reading order - Complex equations - Images and captions - Tables and nested tables - Text from scanned pages - Headings and page structure It can return Markdown, JSON, or HTML for RAG pipelines, search indexes, data extraction systems, document agents, and archive migrations. Marker v2 runs at up to 23.7 pages per second on a single B200 GPU and supports more than 90 languages. GitHub repo: (don’t forget to star it ⭐) I recently used Datalab to build an agent that scans an identity document, extracts the required fields, and fills a tax form automatically. The article covers the full workflow, including document parsing, structured extraction, field mapping, and form completion. Read it below.show more

Parsing PDFs at scale with LLMs is cost prohibitive.... Newer models (e.g. gemini 3) are good at reading pdfs, but you burn unnecessary vision tokens even when the page is text heavy. We’ve built in a “cost-optimizer” within LlamaParse that will dynamically route pages to fast/cheap parsing depending on its complexity. Complex pages (e.g. those with tables/charts/diagrams) will still get routed to our VLM-enabled modes. This will let you save anywhere from 50-90% of parsing costs, at much higher accuracy compared to the comparable mode of feeding screenshots into VLMs. Check it out!show more

Introducing: OpenGranola 🔥 I built an open source meeting... copilot for macOS. It transcribes both sides of your call on-device, searches your own notes in real time, and hands you talking points right when the conversation needs them. No audio leaves your Mac. Point it at a folder of markdown files, pick any LLM through OpenRouter (Claude, GPT-4o, Gemini, Llama), and it just works. It's invisible to screen share too — nobody knows you have it. The whole thing is open source. Link belowshow more

An open-source workspace for open-weight... models 🤯 > Import tasks from other coding agents > Run agents in parallel > Schedule tasks to run on their own Free models built in: DeepSeek V4 Flash, GLM 5.3 Flash, Laguna S 2.1. I had early access and I can assure you it feels incredible. Pick your model and provider, and run it. 100% open source.show more

Today SciPhi is open-sourcing Triplex, a SOTA LLM for... knowledge graph construction. Triplex is so small that it can be used with SciPhi's R2R to build knowledge graphs directly from your laptop. Triplex outperforms few-shot prompted gpt-4o at 1/60th the inference cost.show more

Introducing step . parts, an open source directory of... 12,000+ STEP parts for your next CAD project Many CAD tools like Autodesk have huge closed libraries of standard mechanical and electrical parts The goal is to build an equivalent catalog for the open source CAD communityshow more

NanoBanana 2 just made your static ad agency obsolete.... And I just open sourced the entire tool. Drop your product page URL. It pulls your logos, product images, fonts, colors, and brand voice automatically. Builds a full brand guide for you. Then generates ad creatives at scale using nearly 4,000 high-performing ad templates across 8 niches. It dynamically matches the best templates to your brand and brief. Here's what makes it different: → Instant resizing Get any ad in 1x1, 4x5, 9x16 with one click. No regeneration. No broken text. → Highlight-to-edit See an issue? Highlight the area and tell it what to fix. → Multiple brand profiles Run different brands or segments from one tool. → Auto persona building from real customer reviews → Multiple QC loops on briefs and final assets Catches AI-isms before you do. → Upload your own templates or use ours Runs locally. Just needs your Claude and Google API keys. This is the lite version of what we use internally. You get the full finished tool AND the open source code to make it your own. Creatives still design the system, this handles iteration and scale. Want a copy to download? 1. Like this post 2. Comment "AI" Will DM you the tool along with a tutorial shortly after.show more

This free tool lets Claude scrape Google Maps for... you, on autopilot. It's called Google Maps Scraper Kit.

New open-source agent harness just landed! I got early... access to TrueForge by TrueFoundry and have been running it locally for the past few days. The harness layer deserves as much attention as the model, and open source matters here because you can inspect the loop, run it on your own infrastructure, and swap to the latest or cheaper models. TrueForge handles the runtime work that makes an agent reliable. It drives the tool-calling loop, manages context, coordinates subagents, and executes code in a sandbox, with any model you choose. Every tool call re-sends the growing context to the model, so in practice the harness controls most of what an agent costs to run. A few things stood out from my testing and their published benchmarks. Vendor-Neutral by design. It runs OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google models alongside open-weight models like Kimi, GLM, and DeepSeek. Model routing is a setting, and you can send each task to the model that fits it. On a 14-task enterprise agent benchmark, it matched the accuracy of Claude Managed Agents running the same Opus 4.8 model at roughly 30% lower cost per run (3.8M tokens vs 10M for the same answers). Routing the same tasks to GLM-5.2 held accuracy and brought cost down by about 75%, around $3 per run instead of $12. Fully self-hosted and Open Source (MIT License). I had it running locally with one command, with sandboxed code execution working out of the box. It's time to own your agent harness. Thanks to TrueFoundry for partnering on this post.show more
