Why OCR-to-Markdown Matters

This "translate to markdown", combined with the realtime streaming feature, is a pretty big deal in this new age of AI agents. Markdown files provide semantic structure to plain text files, so when you feed the content to an agent it helps a lot (compared to a plain text with no structure). Also the fact that it can live stream means you can run OCR and stream the result directly into an agent in realtime.
