Excel to Markdown
Publish spreadsheet reference data in a repository or knowledge base. Each worksheet gets its own section, making multi-sheet reports easier to navigate.
Files are uploaded to the BrightTools server only when you start conversion. Editing, preview and ZIP creation happen in your browser.
Temporary files and results are deleted after success, failure or timeout. Crash leftovers are removed within 16 minutes while the service is running, or at its next startup. Results are not stored long term. Logs and analytics exclude original filenames and document content.
Most tools work locally. Background removal and Document to Markdown upload selected files for server processing and delete them afterwards.

Only XLSX is accepted. Charts, cell formatting and merged cells may be lost. Formula values depend on saved workbook data; formulas are not recalculated. Complex layouts, charts, formulas and images may not survive conversion. Check extracted text and tables before using them. No OCR, URL fetching, ZIP input, audio, video or AI image recognition.
