How FileDigest Works

A user-facing overview of FileDigest document preparation.

FileDigest turns supported source documents into AI-ready artifacts you can inspect before using them in ChatGPT, Claude, RAG prep, or analyst workflows.

The core output is a readable digest.md plus a structured manifest.json. The digest is for humans and LLM context windows. The manifest is for file-level review, metadata checks, and repeatable downstream workflows.

Upload a document packet

Start with PDFs, DOCX files, TXT, Markdown, HTML, or a ZIP bundle containing supported files.

Choose processing options

Select fast text extraction for normal jobs, accurate tables when structure matters more, or OCR when your plan includes scanned-document processing.

Review the result

Open the completed job to inspect the digest, manifest, parsed files, warnings, failed files, and token estimates.

Download private artifacts

Download digest.md and manifest.json through authenticated, short-lived links tied to your account.

FileDigest is intentionally narrow: it prepares source documents for AI use. It is not a chat app, not a public file host, and not a replacement for human review.
