Convert Excel to Markdown tables
Every sheet in your workbook becomes a clean Markdown table under its own heading. Dates and numbers are written the way Excel shows them, so AI tools read the same values you see.
● Runs in your browser. Your files are never uploaded.

- Tables for GitHub READMEs, issues and pull requests
- Small datasets for documentation and wikis

Worth knowing

- Charts, colours and cell formatting are not kept.
How it works
- Drop your file into the box above, or tap to choose it. Several files at once work too.
- The file is converted inside your browser. Scanned pages and images are read with OCR in the languages you pick.
- Preview the Markdown, copy it, or download it as a .md file.
Questions
Does it convert every sheet?
Yes. Each sheet becomes its own section with the sheet name as a heading, in the order they appear in the workbook.
Is Markdown better than pasting from Excel into ChatGPT?
Pasting copies tab-separated cells that lose their headers easily. A Markdown table keeps the header row with the data, which AI models read more reliably.
How big a spreadsheet can I convert?
Up to 10 MB without an account, 25 MB on a free account and 200 MB on Pro. For AI chats, smaller focused tables give better answers.
