Summary

Paste HTML markup, click Convert, and download clean plain text — no server, no sign-up.

How it works

  1. Paste or type your HTML into the input text area on the left.
  2. Click "Convert to TXT" — the browser parses the markup using a hidden DOM node.
  3. innerText is read from the parsed node, preserving natural whitespace and line breaks.
  4. The extracted plain text appears in the output panel on the right.
  5. Click "Copy Text" to copy to clipboard, or "Download .txt" to save the file.
