Hey Product Hunt 👋
I'm Johnny, founder of the team behind the Website to Markdown API.
We built the Website to Markdown API because turning a website into clean, usable text is still way harder than it should be. You end up maintaining a headless browser, handling JavaScript-rendered pages that return empty HTML, writing cleanup logic to strip navigation and cookie banners, and building retry logic for sites that block scrapers. It works for the first 10 sites and breaks on the 11th.
So we made it one API call. Submit a URL, get clean Markdown back.
The page is rendered before extraction, so React, Next.js, and Vue sites work the same as static HTML. Anti-bot handling (proxy rotation, browser fingerprinting, retries) is built in. The output is the actual content: no nav, no footers, no ads. You get a Markdown document you can drop straight into an LLM context window, a knowledge base, or a RAG pipeline. No HTML parsing, no post-processing.
The same endpoint handles PDFs, DOCX, PPTX, EPUB, images, audio, and video. You learn one API and use it for everything. Pass ?format=json if you want structured output with text chunks instead of Markdown.
Website to Markdown is part of the broader Exabase platform, so the same API key also gets you deep search, memory, and automation if you ever need to go further. But it works perfectly well on its own.
Free plan available, no credit card required.
Thanks for checking it out. I'll be here all day answering questions!

This seems super useful to me as a marketer, especially handling all different formats too. I will give it a check, upvoted!
Looks useful for AI agents. Did you think about providing an MCP server or a hook to use in claude/codex? It could replace the curl command.
