The problem
Why copy-paste fails
Pages are noisy
Live web pages bury content under navigation, ads, banners, and scripts.
Markup is messy
Hand-written and generated HTML rarely maps cleanly to readable structure.
AI needs the content
RAG and agents want the article, not the page chrome around it.
How it works
Format notes
Server-side fetch
The page is fetched server-side and then converted like an HTML file; no browser plugin or local tool is needed.
Public pages only
Pages behind authentication, paywalls, or login walls cannot be fetched. Only publicly accessible URLs are supported.
JavaScript-heavy pages
Pages that rely heavily on client-side JavaScript to render content may not convert fully, as the fetcher receives the initial server-rendered HTML.
Boilerplate removal
Navigation, ads, and footer chrome are dropped; the converter focuses on the page's main content region.
Example output
# Article Title The main content of the page, without the navigation and ads.
Common questions
How does it work?
Paste a public web page URL. The page is fetched server-side and parsed into clean Markdown — no file to upload.
Does it strip ads and navigation?
Yes, the goal is to return the page's main content as clean Markdown, not the surrounding page chrome.
Are there any limits for the free converter?
The free converter works on public web pages. Pages that produce a response body larger than 10 MB may be truncated.
Does it work on pages behind a login?
No. Only publicly accessible URLs are supported. Pages behind authentication, paywalls, or login walls cannot be fetched.
What about JavaScript-rendered pages?
The converter fetches the initial server-rendered HTML. Pages that depend on client-side JavaScript to load content may not convert fully.
Can I convert multiple URLs at once?
Batch conversion is available via the developer API. See /developers for documentation on bulk processing.
Is it free?
Yes. Preview is free; download and history use a free account. Public web pages only (no internal or private URLs).
Is there a developer API?
Yes. Convert web pages by URL programmatically via the REST API. See /developers for documentation.
