What is DeGPT?

DeGPT is a tiny, focused tool that fixes one very specific problem:

When you copy from ChatGPT into another app, the formatting often breaks.

Bullets turn weird, line spacing changes, headings look off, or you carry over special characters, hidden markup and even personal details you didn't mean to paste.

DeGPT sits between ChatGPT and the apps you work in (Word, Google Docs, Slides, Notion, email, project tools) and turns your AI output into clean, paste-ready text in one click.

Why copy-pasting from ChatGPT is such a mess

When you copy from ChatGPT, you're not just copying visible text. You're also copying:

  • Invisible formatting characters
  • Hidden line breaks and spacing
  • Unicode characters for things like bullets and dashes
  • Markdown symbols like #, *, and ``` that don't always play nicely elsewhere

Different tools interpret those characters differently. That's why the same ChatGPT answer:

  • Looks fine in your browser
  • Breaks headings and justification in Word
  • Turns bullets into plain dashes in slides
  • Makes your CRM or helpdesk editor do something completely unexpected

DeGPT is designed to remove that friction.

What DeGPT does (in plain language)

DeGPT takes text from ChatGPT (or any LLM) and:

Cleans up layout

  • Normalises line breaks and spacing
  • Fixes bullet lists and numbered lists
  • Keeps headings readable, even when you paste into "dumb" editors

Removes junk

  • Strips unwanted leading/trailing boilerplate (e.g. "Sure, here's a detailed guide…")
  • Optionally removes markdown symbols (#, *, backticks) when you don't want them
  • Can flatten "fancy" punctuation (like curly quotes or em dashes) into safer versions for older systems

Protects sensitive info (optional)

Tries to detect and remove:

  • Email addresses
  • Phone numbers
  • Obvious names / company names in common formats

This is useful when you want to share a prompt/response but not the private details.

You choose what DeGPT should do via simple toggles before you copy out the final text.

When to use DeGPT

Use DeGPT when:

You're moving AI-generated content into:

  • Word or Google Docs
  • PowerPoint or Google Slides
  • Notion, Confluence, or wikis
  • Gmail / Outlook or ticketing tools

You're tired of:

  • Fixing alignment or bullet lists after every paste
  • Deleting the first and last lines of "fluff" ChatGPT likes to add
  • Manually stripping out emails, client names, or internal details

In other words: if you repeatedly copy AI output into other tools and then fix the same formatting issues over and over, DeGPT is for you.

How DeGPT fits into your workflow

A typical flow looks like this:

  1. Ask ChatGPT for something (outline, draft, email, code, etc.).
  2. When you're happy with the answer, copy it.
  3. Paste it into DeGPT.
  4. Choose the toggles you want:
    e.g. "Fix bullets + headings", "Strip markdown", "Hide PII".
  5. Click to copy the cleaned version.
  6. Paste into your target app (Docs, Slides, Notion, email, etc.).

You see exactly what will be pasted — no surprises when your cursor lands in Word.

Where you can use DeGPT

DeGPT is built for:

  • ChatGPT users via the ChatGPT app store (DeGPT as a GPT/tool)
  • Any LLM output via the web app at degpt.app
  • Desktop and mobile browsers

If it runs in a browser and lets you paste text, you can probably make DeGPT part of the workflow.

What DeGPT is not

DeGPT is intentionally narrow.

It is not:

  • A full writing assistant (you already have ChatGPT for that)
  • A replacement for your docs tool (Word, Docs, Notion, etc.)
  • A heavy formatting engine (no complex styles, templates, or design system)

Think of DeGPT as the "clean up and make this safe to paste" button sitting between AI and the rest of your tools.
