adeu
by dealfluence
Adeu turns Word (.docx) files into Markdown that an AI assistant can read and edit, then writes the AI's changes back into the file as proper Word Track Changes. It is meant for reviewing and redlining documents such as contracts without losing the original formatting or comments.

What you can do with it
- Ask an AI assistant to redline a contract and get the edits back as Track Changes in Word
- Compare two versions of a .docx file and see a visual diff from the command line
- Strip author names and hidden metadata from a document before sending it to a client
Make money with it
A freelancer could offer a fast contract-review or document-editing service, using AI redlines that clients can check in familiar Track Changes.
An idea, not financial advice. Check the licence before charging for anything built on it.
Ways a business could use it
- Speed up first-pass contract review by having an AI suggest edits that a lawyer or owner can accept or reject in Word
- Clean up metadata and author names from documents before sending them to clients or counterparties

Things to check
- Needs an AI assistant or client (and likely a paid AI subscription or API key) to be useful
- Live Word integration only works on Windows with Python backend
- AI-made legal edits still need human review
