Website to Markdown for AI & RAG
Turn any web page, or a whole website, into clean Markdown ready for LLMs, RAG pipelines, vector databases and AI agents.
- Main content only: strips menus, cookie banners, ads, sidebars and footers. Keeps headings, lists, tables, bold/italic.
- Metadata included: title, description, author, published date, site name, language and word count.
- One page or a whole site: paste URLs, or turn on Follow links to crawl the same website (with depth, page limit and URL filters).
- Fast and cheap: plain HTTP, no browser, so hundreds of pages take a minute.
- Polite: respects robots.txt by default.
- Pay only for pages that worked: failed, blocked or empty pages come back as a free row with an
errorexplaining why.
Who is it for?
- AI / RAG builders loading docs, blogs or help centers into a vector database.
- AI agents that need to read a web page as clean text over the API.
- Content and SEO teams archiving or analyzing competitor content.
Tip: pair it with our Sitemap & URL Extractor to get every URL of a site first, then convert them all here.
How to use it
- Paste one or more Start URLs.
- To convert a whole site, turn on Follow links and set Max pages and Max depth. Optionally limit it with URL include/exclude patterns.
- Click Start, then download the Markdown as JSON, CSV or Excel, or load it straight into your vector database through the API.
Input example
{"startUrls": [{ "url": "https://docs.apify.com/academy" }],"followLinks": true,"maxPages": 100,"maxDepth": 2,"includePatterns": ["/academy/"]}
Output example
{"url": "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_scraping","statusCode": 200,"title": "Web scraping - Wikipedia","description": "…","author": null,"publishedDate": "2026-09-30","language": "en","markdown": "# Web scraping\n\n**Web scraping**, **web harvesting**, or **web data extraction** is data scraping used for extracting data from websites…","wordCount": 4326,"depth": 0,"crawledAt": "2026-10-08T18:55:01Z"}
How much does it cost?
Pay-per-event: a small fee per page converted plus a tiny per-run start fee. For example, 1,000 pages cost about $1. Failed pages are free. Set Maximum cost per run to cap spending; the Actor stops cleanly at your limit.
Limits
- Pages that only show content after running JavaScript (some single-page apps) may return "No readable main content". Those rows are free.
- Only the same website is crawled when Follow links is on.
- Respect each website's terms of use; only convert content you're allowed to use.
Use it through the API, integrations or AI agents
Run it from the Apify API, on a schedule, or connect it to Make, Zapier, n8n or Google Sheets. AI agents can find and call it through the Apify MCP server. Output is clean JSON with the same fields on every run.
FAQ
Is it legal? It reads publicly available pages and respects robots.txt by default. Only convert content you're allowed to use, and respect each website's terms.
Can I get plain text instead? Markdown is plain text with light formatting; strip # and * if you need raw text.
Is there a size limit? Pages up to 15 MB of HTML.
Found a page it can't read? Open an issue with the URL. We usually reply within 24 hours.
