Markdown tools: in from anything, out to anything
Markdown is plain text with just enough structure — headings, lists, tables, links — which makes it the easiest format to edit, version, publish and hand to an AI model. These converters get your documents into Markdown and back out again, entirely in your browser.

- You are feeding an AI or a search index. The Markdown chunker splits documents into token-sized pieces at headings; Compare text shows what changed between two versions.
Why convert through Markdown at all?
Because it separates what a document says from how it looks. The same Markdown file can become a PDF, a web page or a slide deck; it diffs cleanly in Git; and language models read it with fewer tokens and fewer mistakes than PDF or HTML. The PDF vs Word vs Markdown guide covers when each format is the right one to keep.
