Markdown Extractor

Turn any web page into clean Markdown for UX research, notes, documentation, and AI workflows.

Markdown Extractor helps you capture useful web content without the clutter. In one click, it extracts the main content from the current page and converts it into clean, readable Markdown that you can copy, review, save, or reuse in your favorite tools.

Use it to collect UX research, save articles, document product insights, prepare competitive benchmarks, build an Obsidian knowledge base, or send clean context to an AI assistant.

Why install Markdown Extractor?

- Extract the main content of a web page in one click
- Select text on a page and extract only that selection
- Review the result as raw Markdown or rendered preview
- See word count, reading time, estimated token count, images, and links
- Copy Markdown instantly or use "Copy for LLM" with title and source included

The extension opens in a persistent side panel, so it stays available while you browse. You can extract a page, check the output, copy it, export it, then continue your research without switching tools or losing context.

Built for research-heavy workflows

Markdown Extractor is designed for people who collect, organize, and reuse information every day: UX researchers, product designers, content creators, writers, students, researchers, founders, and users of Obsidian, Notion, ChatGPT, Claude, or other AI tools.

Privacy-first by design

Everything runs locally in your browser. Markdown Extractor does not use a backend, does not include analytics, and does not transmit your content. Your history, preferences, and extraction options are stored only in your browser's local storage. Page content is read only when you deliberately start an extraction.
