Private Markdown converter with no upload
Documents and paste convert on your device. Drop2MD servers never receive the file. Free, no account.
Formal policy (website + Chrome extension): drop2md.com/privacy.
Open the converterProof (under 60 seconds)
Do not take our word for it — watch the network while you convert.
- Open drop2md.com and your browser DevTools → Network.
- Optionally filter to Fetch/XHR or “All” and clear the log.
- Drop a small text PDF or Word file (or Paste & Convert).
- Confirm: Markdown appears, and there is no request that uploads your document bytes to drop2md.com.
You may see normal page/asset traffic (scripts, fonts, theme). That is not your document. Drop2MD servers never receive the file or clipboard content.
What we claim
- Conversion stays in your browser
- Optional history stays on this device only
- We do not claim absolute privacy against every threat on your device — we claim Drop2MD does not receive your documents
Compared to “private enough” upload tools
| Claim you often hear | What usually happens | Drop2MD |
|---|---|---|
| “We delete after processing” | File still reaches vendor servers first | File never sent to Drop2MD |
| “Encrypted in transit” | Still an upload to someone else’s stack | No document upload to encrypt |
| AI chat with file attach | Content may be retained for the product / model policy | Convert locally, then paste into any LLM yourself |
If you need OCR or a hosted convert API, pick an upload tool on purpose — Drop2MD stays text-native and on-device. See the comparison matrix.
