Documentation Overview

Techtenstein PDF MCP

MCP server that gives your Claude, Cline, or Cursor session the ability to extract text, tables, and metadata from any PDF URL — including scanned PDFs via OCR. Powered by the Techtenstein PDF Extract API.

Tools exposed

pdf_extract_text(pdf_url, ocr=False) — Extract all text from a PDF as clean plain text
pdf_extract_tables(pdf_url) — Extract all tables as structured row arrays
pdf_metadata(pdf_url) — Get title, author, page count, creation date, encryption status

Install (Claude Desktop)

Add to ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "techtenstein-pdf": {

      "args": ["techtenstein-pdf-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "TECHTENSTEIN_API_KEY": "your_key_from_techtenstein.com"
      }
    }
  }
}

"Extract the tables from this earnings report PDF: https://example.com/q4.pdf"

Claude will call pdf_extract_tables and return a clean structured view of every table on the page.

Or for scanned documents:

"This PDF is a scanned invoice. Extract the text: https://example.com/invoice.pdf"

Claude will call pdf_extract_text(pdf_url, ocr=True) and read the image-based text via OCR.
