Overview

Turn any web page into clean Markdown — stripped of navigation, ads and boilerplate — ready to feed an LLM, a RAG pipeline, or an AI step in an n8n / Make workflow. Give it a URL and get back the article title, body as Markdown, and metadata.

Website to Markdown input — configure the options in the Apify Console

What it does

Extracts the main article content (readability) and converts it to Markdown.
Returns title, byline, excerpt and word count.
Optional: keep or strip links and images.
Saves a .md file per page and puts the Markdown right in the dataset (easy to pipe into an LLM node).

Use cases

AI / RAG pipelines — clean text to embed or summarize (perfect for n8n AI Agent / LangChain nodes).
Content archiving — save readable copies of articles.
Summarize / repurpose — feed clean Markdown to an LLM for summaries or rewrites.

Input

{ "urls": ["https://example.com/blog/post"], "includeLinks": true, "includeImages": true }

Field	Type	Description
`urls`	array	Pages to convert.
`html`	string	Optional raw HTML instead of URLs.
`includeLinks`	boolean	Keep hyperlinks.
`includeImages`	boolean	Keep image references.

`wordCount`	integer	Words in the Markdown.

FAQ

Great for LLMs? Yes — the Markdown drops the page chrome so you feed the model only the real content (fewer tokens, better answers).

Can I use it in n8n? Yes — run it from the Apify node and pass the markdown field to your AI/LLM step. It also works with Make, Zapier and other integrations and the Apify API.

Notes

Original clean-room implementation. Collects only public page content.

Input
