Extract clean text or markdown from any website. Then paste into your favorite AI.Hey Product Hunt community! I'm thrilled to launch urltotext.com today.
Urltotext.com started as an internal debugging tool the web scraper for another product of ours but quickly became indispensable for our customers in extracting clean data from various websites.
When working with LLMs, especially for RAG (retrieval augmented generation), clean data input is crucial.
Urltotext.com excels at:
- Extracting clean text from raw HTML, reducing token bloat
- Intelligently isolating main content using AI-driven heuristics
- Rendering JavaScript and using residential IPs to overcome common extraction hurdles
We're exploring a paid version with higher rate limits, a fully documented API for programmatic access, and advanced features like CAPTCHA solving.

Good job!@busmark_w_nika Thank you!Hey @timothybramlett really nice your service has huge potential 👌🏻 I was using Jina AI lately but in comparison I love the simplicity of your service.
As feedback I would add a validation message when a url without schema is entered.
