Free Online HTML to Markdown

Convert HTML Into Clean Markdown Syntax

Need to use HTML to Markdown right now?

Content that lives as HTML — a scraped webpage, an exported CMS article, a copied email — often needs to become Markdown for a README, a static site generator, or a note-taking app. Converting by hand means manually swapping every `<h1>` for a `#`, every `<strong>` for `**`, and so on. This tool walks the HTML's DOM tree and rebuilds it as equivalent Markdown automatically.

About HTML to Markdown
Content that lives as HTML — a scraped webpage, an exported CMS article, a copied email — often needs to become Markdown for a README, a static site generator, or a note-taking app. Converting by hand means manually swapping every `<h1>` for a `#`, every `<strong>` for `**`, and so on. This tool walks the HTML's DOM tree and rebuilds it as equivalent Markdown automatically.
It handles the common structural elements that make up the vast majority of real content: headings (h1-h6), paragraphs, bold and italic text, inline code and code blocks, links, images, blockquotes, horizontal rules, and both ordered and unordered lists — using the browser's own DOMParser to correctly interpret the HTML structure first.
This is genuinely useful for migrating content between platforms, converting a webpage's article body into Markdown for a personal knowledge base, or preparing HTML content for a Markdown-based static site generator without manually retyping formatted text.
How it works
  1. Paste your HTML. Any standard HTML markup with common formatting.
  2. Review the Markdown output. Headings, bold, links, and lists convert automatically.
  3. Copy the result. Ready to paste into any Markdown-based tool.
Examples

Input
<h1>Title</h1><p>Some <strong>bold</strong> text.</p>
Output
# Title\n\nSome **bold** text.
