    ​

How Paste Text & Markdown Works

When you paste .txt or .md content directly into Taskade, the text is automatically cleaned up and reformatted using AI without changing the original meaning.

What the AI Does

What the AI Doesn't Do

  • ✅ Adds spacing and line breaks
    ​

  • ✅ Preserves existing formatting:
    ​

    • Bullet points
      ​

    • Numbered lists
      ​

    • Headings
      ​

    • Bold/Italic text
      ​

    • Links and images

  • ❌ Summarize your content
    ​

  • ❌ Translate text
    ​

  • ❌ Add or remove meaning
    ​

  • ❌ Add intro/outro
    ​

  • ❌ Comment on the text

Here's an example of a Markdown text run through the importer:
