Frequently asked questions

Why does ChatGPT output so much Markdown? +

Chat models are trained to structure answers with headings, bold and bullet lists. It reads well in chat but looks cluttered pasted into a doc or CMS. This tool strips the syntax so you’re left with clean sentences.

Will it keep my links? +

The converter flattens Markdown formatting into readable prose; you choose how aggressively to strip. Review the output and re-add any links you want to keep.

Is my text uploaded or stored anywhere? +

No. Everything runs in your browser with plain JavaScript - your text is never uploaded, stored, or logged. Open your browser’s DevTools Network tab while you use it and you’ll see zero requests. The tool also works offline.
