Is my document uploaded?
No. It's converted by your browser, using the open-source mammoth and turndown libraries, on your own computer.
What formatting is kept?
Headings, paragraphs, bold and italic, bulleted and numbered lists, links and tables (the first row becomes the header). Images are replaced by their alt text so the Markdown stays clean for AI tools.
Why convert Word to Markdown for AI?
Markdown keeps a document's structure (headings, lists, tables) in plain text, which language models read more accurately than raw text pasted from Word. It's also smaller and easier to split into chunks for retrieval.
Can I convert Excel, PowerPoint or PDF too?
This free tool handles Word files. Docs to Markdown for AI converts all of those formats in bulk, and the free PDF to CSV tool pulls tables out of PDFs.
