About MDifying
MDifying converts PDF, Word, Excel, PowerPoint and image files into clean Markdown that preserves document structure such as headings and tables. Processing occurs entirely in the user’s browser using WebAssembly, so files never leave the device and no upload step is required. The tool supports scanned PDFs via local OCR, recognizing English and Spanish text from images. Output can be copied directly into AI chat interfaces like ChatGPT or Claude, or into note-taking apps such as Obsidian and Notion. A Chunks tab splits documents into semantically meaningful pieces for vector stores, preserving heading paths and avoiding mid-table splits. The converter is free to use without sign-up and imposes file size limits of 50 MB on desktop and 10 MB on mobile, reflecting browser memory constraints rather than account restrictions.
