Products that do what Convert plain text to formatted documents with one click does
The title says it all really, it's quite a simple system that takes plain text and formats it nicely based on templates and outputs the result to a PDF in one click. It's currently free and easy to test directly from my site's front page. I developed it because I was job hunting and giving ChatGPT the job description and my resume and asking for it to rejig my resume to better fit the job. I then needed to format the result each time and thought there had to be a better, automated, way. I couldn't find anything that just formatted text at the click of a button - outside of the usual markdown…

I made a tiny bookmarklet that opens ChatGPT in a new tab and auto-fills the prompt to summarize the current page you're on. Just drag this to your bookmarks bar: javascript:(function(){ const url = encodeURIComponent(window.location.href); window.open(`https://chatgpt.com/?q=summarize this page ${url}`, '_blank'); })(); Use it while browsing articles or docs — click once and ChatGPT gives you a summary. Super handy for speeding through content!

Hey HN I built MarkdownConverters.com — a tool that converts any file format (PDF, DOCX, PPTX, HTML, or URL) into clean, structured Markdown. I often needed to prep documents, reports, or scraped pages for AI pipelines, documentation, or version control, but existing tools either broke formatting, lost code blocks, or produced unreadable Markdown. So I built something that focuses on: • Accurate structure (headings, lists, tables, code, links) • Consistent Markdown output ready for LLMs or docs • Fast, browser-based conversion with privacy-friendly processing • Support for multi-format and…

Text → GPT → p5 | An app that turns your text prompt into p5js code (computer graphics) using OpenAI's GPT and displays it. Under the hood: Nextjs, React, CodeMirror, p5js I got into programming through arduino and processing. I've always thought about how to lower the barriers for people to start programming. With GPT, we can now turn plain text into code, allowing people to start coding without knowing code. OpenAI APIs don't come cheap! If you like the project, consider sponsoring access for others here: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/mattelim Cheers!
