Convert draw.io to Markdown.
Drop a draw.io drawing and get the text from every shape as a clean Markdown list. It runs entirely in your browser, so your file never leaves your device.
Drag & drop your files
or
Optimize for AI & RAG
Extra cleanup for LLM ingestion: strip HTML, fix smart quotes, tidy Unicode and spacing.
Add YAML front matter
Prepend a metadata block (title, source, date, word & token counts) for knowledge bases and RAG.
Add table of contents
Build a linked index from the headings. Handy for long documents.
Export RAG chunks (.json)
Split the result into retrieval-ready chunks. Download per file from the result panel.
Most converters quietly upload your documents to a server. This one physically can't.
Your text is locked
inside the canvas.
A .drawio file stores each shape as mxGraph XML, not plain text. The converter reads that XML and lifts every label out into a simple Markdown bullet list.
<mxGraphModel><root>
<mxCell value="Start" style="ellipse"/>
<mxCell value="Review order"/>
<mxCell value="Ship"/>
</root></mxGraphModel>

Everything you
actually need.
Shape labels in, a tidy Markdown list out, with no server and no account anywhere.
It never leaves your browser
Your .drawio is read and parsed on your device. Nothing is uploaded to any server, ever.

AI & RAG ready

Works offline
Once the page has loaded you can switch off your connection and it keeps converting.

Labels become a list
The text on every shape and object is pulled into a flat bullet list under a heading.
Unicode safe
Accents, symbols and non-Latin scripts come through intact as UTF-8.
Free, and unlimited
No sign-up, no quotas, no watermarks. Convert one file or a thousand; it all runs the same way, on your own device.
What survives
the trip.
Honest about what comes through, and what doesn't. These are the same notes the Formats list shows for draw.io, so the page never drifts from what the converter really does.
