Reducto is a document processing API that converts complex documents — PDFs, scanned files, and more — into structured, machine-readable content. The Reducto MCP server lets you parse documents, extract structured data, split documents into sections, and fill forms using natural language.

​
What Can It Do?

  • Parse documents — convert PDFs and other files into structured text, tables, and figures
  • Extract structured data — pull specific fields from documents using a JSON schema
  • Split documents — divide a document into logical sections based on descriptions
  • Edit documents — fill forms or modify documents with natural language instructions
  • Manage jobs — track, monitor, and cancel document processing jobs

​
Where to Use It

Add Reducto as a tool to any agent. The agent can then process and extract data from documents conversationally, choosing the right actions based on context. To add an MCP tool to your agent:
  1. Open your agent’s configuration
  2. Click Add tools → Connect an app with MCP
  3. Search for the integration and select it
  4. Authenticate with your Reducto API key
You can control which tools your agent has access to. After adding an integration, click on it to enable or disable specific tools based on what your agent needs.

​
In Workflows (Via Agent Node)

For automated pipelines, use an Agent Node with Reducto tools. This gives you the flexibility of an agent within a deterministic workflow.

​
As a Custom MCP Node

You can also create a standalone MCP node for a specific action. This generates a reusable node that performs one task, useful when you need the same operation repeatedly in workflows.
To create a custom MCP node:
  1. Go to your node library and search for the integration
  2. Click Create a node with AI
  3. Describe the specific action you want (e.g., “Extract invoice data from a PDF”)
  4. Test the node and save it for reuse
Custom MCP nodes are single-purpose by design. For tasks that require multiple steps or dynamic decision-making, use an agent instead.

Troubleshooting

For best extraction results, provide a detailed JSON schema that describes exactly what fields you need and their expected data types. The more specific your schema, the more accurate the extraction.
