- Klartext converts documents (PDF, photos, Word, Excel, etc.) to clean Markdown locally, ensuring no data is sent to external AI services like OpenAI or Google.
- The service is permanently free with no paid tiers; it requires only a free account to enforce fair-use limits (25 MB per file, 5 files per upload, 100 pages per document, 100 conversions per day).
- It preserves numbers, names, tables, and original structure, but may lose comments, footnotes, text boxes, and complex layouts like multi-column or handwritten content.
- Uploaded files and results are automatically deleted after 24 hours (or manually immediately), and the conversion runs on a private server without external OCR or AI services.
- Output includes both a readable Markdown file and a detailed JSON file with full structure (pages, blocks, table cells) for integration into other programs.
