Website to Markdown API

What is Website to Markdown API?

Website to Markdown API is a straightforward developer tool that turns any URL into clean, readable Markdown. Submit a link, and the API returns the full page content—including JavaScript-rendered pages—as a structured Markdown document. It strips away navigation menus, footers, and cookie banners, leaving only the core content. The output is designed to drop directly into an LLM context window, a knowledge base, or a document pipeline with zero post-processing. The same API also handles PDFs, DOCX, PPTX, images, audio, and video files, making it a versatile extraction layer for modern AI workflows.

Who it's for

• LLM application developers who need clean, structured text from arbitrary web pages to feed into context windows without manual cleanup.
• Knowledge base builders who want to ingest web content into internal documentation or retrieval systems with minimal friction.
• Data pipeline engineers who require a reliable, scalable extraction service that handles JavaScript-heavy sites and anti-bot measures automatically.

Key features

JavaScript rendering built in

Pages that rely on client-side rendering are processed automatically. The API executes the JavaScript and returns the fully rendered content, so you don't miss dynamic sections that static scrapers would overlook.

Anti-bot evasion handled for you

Proxy rotation, browser fingerprinting, and automatic retries are all built into the service. You get consistent results from sites that actively block scrapers, without having to build and maintain your own evasion infrastructure.

Multi-format support

Beyond HTML pages, the same API extracts content from PDFs, DOCX, PPTX, images, audio, and video. One endpoint covers a wide range of source materials, simplifying your integration.

CDN-hosted screenshots included

Every extraction comes with a screenshot hosted on a CDN. This is useful for visual verification, archiving, or building previews alongside the Markdown output.

What stands out

The output goes straight into an LLM context window or knowledge base with no post-processing.

That's the core promise, and it holds. Most extraction tools give you raw HTML or messy JSON that still needs cleaning. This API delivers Markdown that's ready to use as-is. The combination of JavaScript rendering, anti-bot evasion, and multi-format support in a single call is rare—you'd typically need to stitch together several services to get the same result. The free plan makes it easy to test whether it fits your workflow before committing.

Worth checking out if…

You're building AI-powered features that need clean web content at scale, or you're tired of maintaining fragile scraping scripts that break every time a site updates its layout. If you process documents, articles, or any web-based source material for LLM ingestion, this API removes a significant chunk of plumbing. It's also worth a look if you need a single endpoint that handles both web pages and file formats without juggling multiple vendors. The free plan lets you validate the output quality on your own URLs before deciding if it earns a place in your stack.
