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.

01Why

Tab columns,
hard to scan.

GFF, GTF and BED pack one feature per line across tab-separated columns that are tough to read by eye. Converting lines the main columns up in a readable Markdown table.

Features become a table

The main columns of each annotation row line up in one table, for up to 200 entries.

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 annotation file or a thousand; it all runs the same way, on your own device.

03Fidelity

What survives
the trip.

Honest about what comes through, and what doesn't. These are the same notes the Formats list shows for GFF, GTF and BED, so the page never drifts from what the converter really does.
