MinerU alternatives
Models that cover what MinerU does, closest first. All of them take the same request, so trying one is a one-word change.
Open-source vision model that compresses pages into few tokens.
Open-source document model from Baidu. Excellent on Chinese, Japanese and Korean.
Small open-source OCR model from Z.ai with layout regions. MIT licensed.
Open-source model from Baidu that reads hundreds of pages in one pass with flat memory use.
Datalab's OCR model that keeps layout and handles forms, tables and handwriting.
Single vision model from rednote that does layout detection and content recognition together.
Dashed tags are things MinerU does not support. Model IDs: deepseek/deepseek-ocr, paddle/paddleocr-vl, zai/glm-ocr, baidu/unlimited-ocr, datalab/chandra, rednote/dots-ocr.
