About the web-to-Markdown cleaner
A free tool that turns messy web pages, pasted HTML, and article links into clean Markdown — stripping ads, newsletters’ chrome, tracking pixels, and navigation clutter in the process. It is built for researchers saving sources, writers collecting reference material, and anyone feeding documents into an LLM or note system that works best with plain text.
How it works
The pipeline runs entirely client-side. Mozilla’s Readability algorithm (the same engine behind Firefox Reader View) identifies the main article content, then Turndown converts the clean HTML into Markdown with options for GFM tables, preserved links, H1 titles, and image handling. You can paste raw HTML directly, drop in page source, or fetch a URL — fetched pages are requested from your own browser session, and sites that block cross-origin requests can simply be pasted instead.
Limits & requirements
Some sites disallow cross-origin fetching from the browser; pasting the page’s HTML always works as a fallback. Paywalled content requires a page you can already access in your session. Output quality depends on how the source page is structured — well-formed articles clean up best.
Privacy
No document text passes through our servers — conversion runs in your tab, and no content from your pages is logged, stored, or used for training.
