Clean text from ChatGPT and Claude for Google Docs and Microsoft Word
The problem
AI-formatted text breaks when you paste it
When you copy text from ChatGPT or Claude and paste it into Google Docs or Microsoft Word, formatting breaks. Headings lose their hierarchy. Bullet points become plain text. Tables fall apart. Math equations show up as raw LaTeX.
This happens because AI assistants output markdown, a syntax
that uses symbols like # for headings,
* for lists, and | for tables.
Google Docs and Word expect rich text, not markdown, so the
structure gets lost on paste.
TidyText.cc converts AI-generated markdown into clean, formatted text ready for Google Docs and Word. No manual cleanup, no rebuilding lists and tables by hand.
