Compared to common options
| Option | File leaves your device? | Honest fit |
|---|---|---|
| Drop2MD | No | Word → structural Markdown in the browser |
| Desktop pandoc-style CLI | No (local install) | Power users with a toolchain; not a one-click browser tool |
| Typical upload converter | Yes | When you accept vendor processing |
| Chat tools that take file uploads | Yes | Rewrite / summarize — not private convert |
Fidelity follows the document: clean heading styles convert cleanly; complex layouts may need a quick edit. Cross-check privacy at private converter.
