@clairevo @GergelyOrosz I just wrote an article that touches on this https://t.co/4tLskz79lP

@karpathy @kepano I’ve tried to solve this with https://t.co/bwaCVa0DEX - it has a cli too and I’m just finishing work on the mcp - but I mainly built it as a way to quickly put copied text, files and tables into markdown syntax when using ChatGPT

Pasting from PDFs and docs into AI tools usually wrecks the formatting.
I built Format Ferry to fix this. It converts files, rich text, and URLs directly into clean Markdown.

@sqs Awesome! Appreciate the timezone-friendly drop too

[Richard Hewitt @rikhewitt]

@rork Yes please

[Richard Hewitt @rikhewitt]

@rork Please!

@nateliason @joelhooks @nikitabier In the meantime you could try my small browser-based app for copying as markdown: https://t.co/bwaCVa0DEX

@AdamCoccari @chrija Interesting - I’ve been getting the full AI-enhanced notes (key points, actions etc.) landing as content in my Notion database, not just links. The raw transcript does stay in Granola though.

[Richard Hewitt @rikhewitt]

@AdamCoccari @chrija Connect Granola to Notion?

@emollick And if you need to convert some existing formatted text or docs to plain markdown, please try https://t.co/bwaCVa0DEX
Format Ferry is a small browser-based markdown converter; no servers, everything local. I built it to help me switch between sources and AI tools and keep meaning

Amp Free with Opus 4.5 is now available for everyone. $300 per month in ad-supported usage credits.

I think this will be especially impactful for students—I cannot think of a more important tool to get good at using right now if you're studying CS than coding agents.

@audiencon Format Ferry: convert rich text and files to clean markdown in a mobile friendly, small browser-based app - no servers; everything local. Helps with retaining formatting (header hierarchies, tables, emphases etc) when switching tools. https://t.co/xjGu8niFqs

[Richard Hewitt @rikhewitt]

@rork Would love to give it a whirl

[Richard Hewitt @rikhewitt]

@mattpocockuk Love the keep-it-simple approach! Format Ferry helps with context prep: browser-based utility that converts messy docs/HTML/rich text to clean Markdown locally (no servers, totally private, free). Great for feeding AI coding tools. https://t.co/bwaCVa0DEX
