Markdown Converter

Convert web pages and HTML to clean markdown

Build a smart HTML-to-markdown converter that goes beyond tag-level conversion. The agent understands page structure, strips navigation and boilerplate, extracts the main content, and produces clean markdown that represents the actual article or document — not the entire DOM.

Implementation

  1. 1

    Fetch and parse HTML

    Build a tool that fetches URLs or accepts raw HTML. Parse the DOM and identify the document structure.

  2. 2

    Extract main content

    The agent identifies and extracts the primary content, removing navigation, sidebars, ads, footers, and other boilerplate elements.

  3. 3

    Convert to semantic markdown

    Map HTML elements to markdown equivalents. Handle complex elements like nested tables, definition lists, and embedded media.

  4. 4

    Clean and optimize

    Remove redundant formatting, fix broken links, convert image references, and ensure consistent markdown style throughout.

  5. 5

    Support batch conversion

    Process entire websites or sitemaps. Maintain internal link references between converted pages.

What You Get

  • Extracts main content, ignoring navigation and boilerplate
  • Handles complex HTML that basic converters break on
  • Batch conversion for entire websites with link preservation
  • Clean, consistent markdown output ready for any platform
