The preview shows the Markdown
source itself — plain text,
ready for any indexer.Hosted markdown workspace
Your private Markdown filesystem.
Sign in with your shared trycopilot account, then upload Markdown files into a simple virtual directory tree that belongs only to you. Connect Google Drive and Gmail to sync content in as Markdown.
Upload .md or .markdown files, optionally into nested virtual paths like notes/2026/todo.md. Google Docs export as Markdown; Gmail threads render as thread.md.
Each query is scoped to the authenticated user, so your uploaded files and paths stay private.
How it works
From Google services to one Markdown tree.
- Connect
Sign in with Google to let markdownload.ai browse Drive folders and Gmail labels for your account.
- Select
Pick Drive files and folders, or Gmail labels, with checkboxes — then Sync selected.
- Queue
A background worker runs each sync job: queued → running → succeeded, with a per-connector sync log.
- Markdown
Every synced document lands as a plain Markdown file in your virtual directory tree.
- Retrieve
One corpus of plain files for retrieval engines to ingest and index.
Uploads work too: bring your own .md files directly, or import from scribe.trycopilot.ai andocr.trycopilot.ai by URL.
For retrieval engines
One corpus an engine can index.
The file system is the interface: plain Markdown files in a virtual directory tree, previewed as raw source — no proprietary format between your content and an indexer. My, another trycopilot.ai app, indexes Markdown files like these with FTS5/BM25 for retrieval. Click a file.

Uploads accept .md and .markdown; Google Docs export as Markdown; Gmail threads render as thread.md.
The preview shows the Markdown source itself, so what an indexer reads is exactly what you see.
Every query is scoped to the authenticated user; connector calls only run once a Google grant exists for the account.
