Turn a book into an AI skill.
Bindlore converts books you own — PDF, EPUB, Word, even photos of paper pages — into ready-to-use Claude & ChatGPT skills.
The whole point
The book-to-AI tool that never sees your books.
Other extractors screenshot your pages and ship them to their cloud to “process.” Bindlore doesn’t have a cloud. Parsing, OCR, and skill-building all happen inside your browser — your books, and everything you make from them, stay on your machine. Not even we can see them.
Three steps
Drop a book. Get something an AI can actually use.
Not a raw text dump — a finished, structured skill with a SKILL.md and chapter references, ready to drop into Claude or Codex.
Drop a file or snap photos
PDF, EPUB, Word, PowerPoint, TXT — or photos and scans of physical pages you own. Batch several at once.
See it free
Bindlore reads and splits the book into sections, pulls the title and author, and shows you a preview. No charge to look.
Get a real skill
Download an AI Skill, Markdown, Word, or Text — plus optional AI summaries, key insights, and Anki flashcards.

What’s inside
Built to make skills, not scrape text.
On-device OCR
Photograph a paper book you own; the text is recognized entirely on your machine. No image ever leaves your computer.
Finished skills
A proper SKILL.md + chapter references — the thing an AI can actually search and cite, not a wall of text.
Batch everything
Drop a whole shelf of files at once and get one tidy bundle of skills back.
AI summaries & flashcards
Optional chapter summaries, key-insight glossaries, and Anki decks — using your own OpenAI or Anthropic key.
Every format
Export as Skill, Markdown, Word, or Text. One click to copy for AI, or jump straight into ChatGPT or Claude.
Your content, your rights
Works on books you own and public-domain titles. It refuses DRM by design — a converter, never a cracker.
The difference
Same goal. Opposite philosophy.
Typical “Kindle to text” tools
- ✕ Screenshot your pages and send them to their cloud
- ✕ Hand you raw, messy text to clean up yourself
- ✕ Lean on defeating copy-protection — legally shaky
- ✕ Your library passes through someone else’s server
Bindlore
- ✓ Everything runs on your device — no cloud, no server

Questions
The honest answers.
Does it work with Kindle?
No — and that’s deliberate. Kindle books are DRM-protected, and Bindlore refuses DRM files on purpose. It converts books you own as DRM-free files (many stores let you download EPUB/PDF), public-domain titles, and your own documents and scans.
Where do my books go?
Nowhere. Parsing, OCR, and skill-building all run inside your browser. There is no Bindlore server for your content to touch. Your files never leave your device.
Do I need an account?
No account, no sign-up. You install the extension and drop in a book. That’s it.
What about the AI summaries — where does my key go?
The AI extras are optional and use your own OpenAI or Anthropic key, stored only on your device. Requests go straight from your browser to the provider you chose — never through us.
What can I actually make?
A ready-to-use AI skill (SKILL.md + chapter references), plus Markdown, Word, or plain text. Optionally: chapter summaries, a key-insight glossary, and Anki flashcards.
Own your books. Own your AI.
Turn the books on your shelf into skills your AI can use — without handing your library to anyone.
