Any document in.
Markdown out.
Open source Rust library that converts Word, PowerPoint, Excel, PDF, and more to GitHub-Flavored Markdown. Node, Python, browser, and CLI bindings. It runs here in your browser: files never leave your machine.

About
- One model
- Every format parses into the same document model and renders through the same Markdown serializer, so headings, nested lists, merged table cells, and footnotes come out the same from a .doc written in 2003 as from yesterday's .pptx.
- Detection
- The format is read from the bytes, not the extension, so mislabeled files still convert.
- Speed
- Pure Rust, no ML models, no services: median conversion is under 5 ms. Of seven converters benchmarked on 100 documents, anydoc was the only one to handle all fourteen formats.
- Text-based PDFs convert locally through pdf-inspector. Scanned pages need OCR, which Firecrawl Parse adds on top of this same conversion.
- This page
- The converter above is @firecrawl/anydoc-wasm, anydoc compiled to WebAssembly. Drop it into your own app the same way.

The API is the same everywhere: convert from a path or from bytes, or stop at the document model and keep the embedded assets. See the README.
