Infer the structure
The model separates document fields, repeating rows, totals, and notes based on the file in front of it.
How does image to Markdown conversion work?
Dynamite Docs uses AI OCR to read visible text from a document photo, scan, or screenshot and turn it into editable Markdown. Review the wording, reading order, headings, lists, and table cells beside the image.
What to expect
Markdown keeps text structure, not the original design. Blur, cropping, columns, handwriting, formulas, and diagrams can require manual correction.
The full workflow
The output stays beside the evidence.
Check the proposed fields against the source, correct a value, then export the reviewed editable Markdown.

Choose the AI route
Bring a free provider key. Keep the review workflow.
Open AI & Processing, choose Connect Provider, and pick a provider. The setup screen links to that provider's key page. Create a free key where the provider offers one, paste it into Dynamite Docs, verify it, then select a model for the run.
Your provider key is encrypted before it is stored.
Switch between hosted, own-key, privacy-restricted, and local models.
The same source-first review screen works whichever route you choose.
Choose the page for the job using Dynamite Docs
Use Image to Markdown when a scanned page, document photo, or screenshot contains text, headings, lists, or simple tables that you need to convert into editable Markdown syntax. Capture the document with sharp focus, even lighting, and minimal perspective tilt to ensure optical character recognition can distinguish character details.
After extraction, review the generated Markdown document from top to bottom. Verify heading depth (# to ###), check that lists retain proper numbering and bullet nesting, verify table pipes and column alignments, and check character accuracy in proper nouns, dates, and alphanumeric codes.
If the original file is a PDF with selectable digital text, use PDF to Markdown for private, zero-upload local conversion in your browser. Choose Image to Excel or Image to CSV when tabular calculations and cell types are the primary focus, or Image to JSON for structured application schemas. For confidential data, review AI provider routing and data-residency policies in workspace settings.
The 28-day Free trial includes 25 page-equivalents per month shared by hosted and own-key processing, 5 hosted pages per document, and 5 documents per day. Anonymous trials have separate daily limits.
Setup, review and export questions
Is Image to Markdown browser-only?
No. Images need OCR because they have no embedded text layer. This workflow may send the image to the provider selected in the workspace. The page states that difference before upload.
Which image formats can I use?
The tool accepts JPG, JPEG, PNG, WebP, GIF, TIFF, and AVIF. The original image usually works better than a compressed copy from email or a messaging app.
Can it preserve a table?
It can express a clear, simple grid as a Markdown pipe table. Merged cells, nested headers, faint rules, and severe perspective distortion can need manual correction.
When should I use PDF to Markdown instead?
Use PDF to Markdown when the PDF already has selectable text. That path runs locally with no AI call. Use Image to Markdown for scans, photos, and screenshots that require OCR.
What should I review before reusing the Markdown?
Read the complete output in order. Compare names, dates, amounts, codes and punctuation with the image, then check heading levels, list nesting, paragraph sequence and table cells. If blur or cropping hides source text, retake the image rather than guessing the missing content.
Process the whole folder in one run.
Starter and above add stored files, batch jobs and connected exports. Email intake requires Pro or Scale. File and processing limits depend on your plan.
