HTML to Plain Text Converter — Strip HTML Into Readable Text

This HTML to plain text converter strips all HTML tags and gives you the readable content underneath, fully in your browser. Useful for extracting article text, building a clean copy of an email, generating a plain-text fallback, or feeding webpage content into an LLM.

Plain text is the lowest common denominator — it works in every tool, every editor, every channel. When you save a webpage, the HTML is full of navigation, scripts, styles, and ad markup; you usually just want the words. This converter throws away the markup, preserves paragraph breaks, and gives you readable text with no surprises.

Tags are stripped, scripts and styles are removed, block-level elements (paragraphs, headings, list items) become line breaks for readability, and inline elements collapse into their text content. The output is UTF-8 plain text — no encoding gotchas, no escape sequences, no leftover entities.

Use the copy-to-clipboard button if you are going to paste the text right away, or download the .txt for archival.
