Markdown to Plain Text

Strip Markdown syntax and keep just the readable text. Headings, bold, links, code, lists.

Frequently asked questions

What does the Markdown stripper remove?

Heading hashes, bold and italic markers, inline and fenced code backticks, link and image syntax (keeping the visible text), blockquotes, list bullets and numbers, horizontal rules, and table pipes. The readable words remain.

How is this different from a Markdown previewer?

A previewer renders Markdown as styled HTML. This does the opposite: it removes the syntax entirely so you get flat plain text, useful for word counts, plain-text emails or pasting where formatting is not allowed.

Does it run locally?

Yes, entirely in your browser. Your text is never uploaded.
