Optimize for AI & RAG

Extra cleanup for LLM ingestion: strip HTML, fix smart quotes, tidy Unicode and spacing.

Add YAML front matter

Prepend a metadata block (title, source, date, word & token counts) for knowledge bases and RAG.

Add table of contents

Build a linked index from the headings. Handy for long documents.

Export RAG chunks (.json)

Split the result into retrieval-ready chunks. Download per file from the result panel.

Most converters quietly upload your documents to a server. This one physically can't.

01Why

A notebook,
read as prose.

A Zeppelin notebook is really JSON wrapped around your paragraphs. Converting walks them in order and hands you prose and tagged code blocks you can read anywhere.

ZPLNnotebook.zpln

{

"name": "Sales",

"paragraphs": [

{ "text": "%md\n## Totals" },

{ "text": "%sql\nSELECT * FROM t" }

]

}

MDnotebook.md

# Sales

## Totals

```sql

SELECT * FROM t

```

02Features

Everything you
actually need.

Notebook paragraphs in, clean Markdown out, with no server and no account anywhere.

It never leaves your browser

The notebook is parsed and converted on your own device. Nothing is uploaded to any server, ever.

3 chunks

AI & RAG ready

Optional cleanup, YAML front matter, a table of contents and RAG chunk export.

Works offline

Once the page has loaded you can switch off your connection and it keeps converting.

%md%sql%python

By interpreter

Each paragraph is tagged by its interpreter: %md becomes prose and %sql, %spark or %python become fenced code in that language.

éñü

Unicode safe

Accents, symbols and non-Latin scripts come through intact as UTF-8.

Free, and unlimited

No sign-up, no quotas, no watermarks. Convert one notebook or a thousand; it all runs the same way, on your own device.

03Fidelity

The notes,
not the run.

You keep the written cells and the code you typed. What the notebook computed when it last ran stays behind, the same notes the Formats list shows for Zeppelin.
