Built for the AI tools you already use
How it works
From raw file to AI-ready in one tap
Forge is intentionally simple. Every conversion runs the same clean, four-step path — no settings to wrestle with, nothing to learn.
File
Import a PDF, doc, sheet, image or URL.
Clean
Formatting bloat, tags and noise stripped out.
Markdown
Clean, portable Markdown with structure intact.
AI Ready
Copy or share it straight into your AI tool.
Live demo
Watch the mess become Markdown
Pick a file type and see what your AI tool actually receives — before and after Forge.
Bring in almost anything
20+ formats in. One clean format out.
Forge reads the file types you actually work with and turns every one of them into portable Markdown.

New formats added over time
Smaller, cleaner, ready for AI
More signal. Less context wasted.
Markdown strips away formatting bloat, so your AI tool gets more of what matters in every prompt.
Typical size reduction after converting to Markdown — shown as “up to”, because it depends on your file.

iPhone · iPad · Mac
The same simple workflow, wherever you work.
Forge is a native Apple app built for iPhone, iPad and Mac. Convert on your phone in a queue, or on the Mac at your desk — the workflow never changes.
Built to be trusted
Private by design. Yours forever.
Forge is deliberately boring about your data: it doesn’t want it, doesn’t collect it, and doesn’t phone home.
On-device processing
Files are converted locally using Apple’s on-device tools. Nothing you convert is uploaded to us — ever.
No ads, no analytics
No tracking SDKs, no adverts, no attribution. There’s no server that knows who you are or what you convert.
No login required
Open Forge and start converting. There’s no account to create and nothing tied to your identity.
Originals kept safe
Every source file is stored right beside its Markdown result, in your own app or iCloud storage.

Questions
Good to know
Is Forge a subscription?
No. Forge is free for 14 days, then a single one-off £2.99 lifetime unlock — a non-consumable purchase through Apple. It never renews and never charges you again.
Which files can it convert?
PDFs, Word documents, Excel spreadsheets, CSV/TSV, images (with OCR), web pages and website URLs, HTML, rich text, JSON, JSONL, XML, and plain text or code files like Swift, Python and JavaScript — 20+ formats, all into clean Markdown.
Does anything I convert leave my device?
No. Conversion happens on-device, including image OCR using Apple’s on-device tools. The original file and its Markdown are stored in your own app storage, or iCloud if you have it enabled. Forge has no server that receives your files.
Does it work on Mac as well as iPhone and iPad?
Yes. Forge is a native app for iPhone, iPad and Mac. A single £2.99 purchase covers all your Apple devices.
Do I need an account?
No login, no sign-up, no account. Open the app and start converting.
Why Markdown for AI tools?
Markdown keeps the structure — headings, lists, tables — while dropping the formatting bloat that eats into your context window. That means cleaner input and more room in every prompt for ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini or your own workflow.
