Extract Medium articles as clean Markdown — strips clap buttons, navigation bars, social actions, and paywall UI. Get pure article content with auto-generated image captions.

Features

  • Paywall bypass — extracts content as rendered, stripping Medium's UI noise
  • Clean output — removes claps, nav, social actions, footer CTAs
  • Image captions — auto-generates alt text for images without captions
  • Works with custom domains — handles Medium-hosted blogs on custom domains
  • Batch processing — extract multiple articles in a single run

How It Works

  1. Provide Medium article URLs as input.
  2. The Actor fetches each article, stripping all Medium UI elements.
  3. Clean article content with image captions is converted to Markdown.
  4. Results are stored in the Apify dataset.

Input

{
"startUrls": [
{ "url": "https://medium.com/@karpathy/software-2-0-a64152b37c35" },
{ "url": "https://towardsdatascience.com/some-article-123abc" }
]
}

Output

{
"url": "https://medium.com/@karpathy/software-2-0-a64152b37c35",
"markdown": "# Software 2.0\n\nArticle content..."
}
