About This Tool

Strip HTML and Markdown to get clean text

When you copy text from web pages, documents, or CMS exports, it often carries invisible HTML or Markdown formatting. This tool strips all of it, leaving you with clean, readable plain text.

What gets removed:

  • HTML tags: <p>, <div>, <b>, <a>, etc.
  • HTML entities: &amp;, &lt;, &nbsp;
  • Markdown headings: #, ##, ###
  • Markdown formatting: **bold**, *italic*, __underline__
  • Markdown links: [text](url) → text
  • Inline code: `code`

The text content — words, sentences, paragraphs — is preserved. Only the markup is removed. All processing happens in your browser — private, instant, no limits.
