Free image to Markdown converter
Markdown is everywhere — GitHub READMEs, Notion pages, Obsidian notes, Jekyll blogs, documentation sites. Toolknot's image to Markdown converter uses AI to read a photo or screenshot and produce correctly formatted Markdown, so you don't have to type out all the # headings, - bullet points, and | table | rows | by hand.
It detects headings and assigns the right # level, formats lists with - or 1. syntax, outputs tables in pipe-table format, and preserves **bold** and *italic* emphasis. The tool is completely free, needs no sign up, adds no watermark, and your images are never stored.
