## How to use it

1. Paste the answer from ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini.
2. Pick where you'll paste it: Docs, Gmail or Slack, plain text, or WhatsApp.
3. Leave Replace em dashes on if you don't want them.
4. Copy, then paste it where it's going.

## Tips

- Docs, Gmail or Slack keeps headings, bold, lists, links and tables as real formatting.
- Use plain text for forms, text messages and plain-text email.
- WhatsApp turns bold into *stars*, which WhatsApp shows as bold.
- Read it once before you send. A formatter fixes the look, not the facts.

## FAQ

### Why does ChatGPT text show ** and ##?

AI chats write in Markdown, where **stars** mean bold and ## means a heading. Apps that don't read Markdown show the symbols as they are.

### Does it work with Claude and Gemini answers?

Yes. Any Markdown text works, from any AI.

### Will tables paste into Google Docs?

Yes. In the Docs, Gmail or Slack format, tables are copied as real tables.

### Is my text sent anywhere?

No. It's formatted in your browser.
