Why convert first
- Markdown headings and lists import as real Notion blocks, not one flat paragraph.
- Tables stay as tables instead of collapsing into a wall of text.
- Repeated page headers, footers, and page numbers are stripped out.
- Every word of your content is kept — nothing is summarized or invented.
Questions
Does it work on scanned or image-only PDFs?
Not yet — this preview does not include OCR. If a PDF has no extractable text, the tool tells you honestly instead of returning empty output.
Is my file private?
Files are processed temporarily, never used to train AI, and automatically deleted within 60 minutes.
File retention
Uploaded originals and conversion results are temporary. They are not kept as a permanent document library.
- Uploaded originals are used only to produce your Markdown result and are deleted as soon as processing ends, or within 60 minutes at the latest.
- Conversion results and job records are available for up to 60 minutes, then expire and are automatically removed from the active database.
- We do not keep a permanent document library. Limited provider-managed infrastructure snapshots may retain residual copies for up to 5 days before automatic expiry.
- Uploaded originals are held in temporary local storage only while the job is processed. Recurring cleanup removes any expired temporary upload left by an interruption.
