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

Already text,
just renamed.

Plain text is already valid Markdown, so conversion keeps every line exactly as you wrote it. Give a tool a .md file and it treats the same words as structured, ready-to-use content.

Chat exports, tidied

A file detected as a chat export is reformatted into clean speaker-labeled lines.

éñü

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.

03Fidelity

What survives
the trip.

Plain text is lossless: every character comes through. The right column is not lost work, it is simply formatting that plain text never held in the first place.
