Available tools 4

Read directly from the server with tools/list, grouped by what they act on. If a tool disappears, we record the date.

mindee
mindee_extract_document
Submit a document (PDF or image) to a Mindee extraction model and return the structured fields. Provide EITHER document_url (a public URL) OR file_base64 (+ filename). This enqueues an inference and polls until it completes (up to ~30s); if it is still processing it returns a job_id you can poll with mindee_get_job then read with mindee_get_inference. NOTE: consumes Mindee API credits (paid, billed per page). V2 API: POST /v2/inferences/enqueue.
mindee_get_inference
Fetch the structured result of a completed inference by id, returned as a compact map of extracted fields (plus raw_text if it was requested). V2 API: GET /v2/inferences/{inference_id}.
mindee_get_job
Check the processing status of an enqueued document by job id. Status is Waiting | Processing | Processed | Failed. When Processed, the response carries a result_url; pass that inference id to mindee_get_inference. V2 API: GET /v2/jobs/{job_id}.
mindee_list_models
List the document-extraction models available to your Mindee account (id, name, type). Use a model's `id` as the model_id for mindee_extract_document. V2 API: GET /v2/search/models.

Mindee — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Mindee do?
It exposes 4 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: mindee_extract_document, mindee_get_inference, mindee_get_job, mindee_list_models. The full list with descriptions is on this page — we take it from the server itself via tools/list, not from a README. How MCP servers expose tools in the first place →
Is Mindee working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 29 of 91 checks got a reply (31.9%), average response time 166 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
The registry lists Mindee as active — why does it not respond?
The official MCP registry stores what the author submitted; it does not verify that the server still runs. We check the endpoint ourselves, and this one does not answer. Catalogues that copy the registry without checking will show it as working.
How do I connect Mindee?
Copy the ready config from this page — we generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each with the file path that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.
Does Mindee need an API key?
No. Mindee completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 4 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is Mindee?
It answers our handshake in 166 ms on average, which is faster than 70% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
Is Mindee open source?
Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in JavaScript and 0 stars on GitHub. The source link is on this page, so you can read exactly what it does with your data before you connect it.
