Show HN: I Built an Agentic AI That Creates Hosted File Converters

https://conversiontools.io/ai-converter-studio
1•drdmitry•30m ago
Every developer knows this pain:

"I just need to convert this XML to JSON..."

-> Write a script, test on sample data

-> Need custom output? Calculated fields?

-> ChatGPT back-and-forth, 20 iterations

-> "How do I run this Python with all those dependencies?"

I've been building file converters since 2012 (conversiontools.io). Standard formats are solved, but I constantly get requests for custom edge cases: supplier feeds, proprietary logs, weird XMLs from legacy systems.

So I built AI Converter Studio.

Upload your file. Describe the output format. Get a hosted converter with a web interface and API.

The system analyzes your file structure locally – your actual data isn't sent to the LLM.

Need to change a column name later? Prompt in the chat. AI updates the converter. Done.

10 minutes from "here's my file" to a working automated workflow with API.

Currently in Beta – feedback welcome!

Happy to answer questions!
