What is this Markdown to plain text converter?
A free, browser-based tool that strips Markdown syntax and gives you clean plain text. Headings, emphasis, list markers, blockquotes, code fences, and horizontal rules are removed; links keep their text (optionally with the URL) and images keep their alt text. Paste a Markdown draft and copy the unformatted result — ideal for places that should not contain markup, like search meta descriptions and email bodies. Everything runs locally in your browser, so your text is never uploaded.
How to use it
- Paste your Markdown into the box on the left.
- The plain text appears on the right and updates live.
- Optionally turn on "Keep link URLs" to render links as "text (url)".
- Copy the result or download it as a text file.
Common use cases
- Turning a Markdown draft into a clean meta description for a page or article.
- Pasting formatted notes into a plain-text email without stray * and # symbols.
- Preparing text for tools or fields that do not support Markdown formatting.
