HTML to Plain TextNEW
Strip tags and scripts from HTML and read the page metadata at the same time
Checking your access…
The AllFreeTool HTML to plain text converter turns a page's source code into clean readable text online and free, stripping tags, scripts and styles, and at the same time reading out the title, description, keywords, canonical link, Open Graph tags and the H1/H2 heading structure. The parsing happens entirely in your browser.
Clean up a page body for content analysis, pull the article text out for editing, check whether the page metadata is complete, or turn HTML into plain text before pasting it elsewhere. No registration, no usage limit, and the source code is never uploaded.
Why use HTML to Plain Text on AllFreeTool?
Body Extraction
Removes scripts, styles and tags automatically and outputs ready-to-use plain text.
Metadata Parsing
Reads the title, description, keywords, canonical and OG social tags in one pass.
Structure Check
Lists the H1 and H2 headings, the number of images missing alt text and the link count.
Local Parsing
The source is parsed inside your browser and never uploaded, so unpublished content stays safe.
How to use HTML to Plain Text

Copy and Use

Common questions
Is the extracted text the same as what I see in the browser?+
Essentially yes. Scripts, styles and noscript content are removed, and block-level tags are turned into line breaks, so the layout comes out tidier. Pure CSS layout cannot be reproduced, and complex table structures may need manual adjustment afterwards.
Why does the word count differ from the original page?+
The count covers both English words and Chinese characters, and punctuation is not counted separately. Chinese text is measured per character, which is the more intuitive way to read it. If you need an exact English word count, check it against the extracted text yourself.
Can it check my whole website?+
This tool works on one page of source code at a time. For a site-wide review, use the SEO audit tool on this site: it checks the technical SEO configuration item by item and returns a score with concrete fixes.
Is the source code I paste saved?+
No. Parsing happens in the browser, the source is never sent to the server, and we keep no record of it. Closing the page discards everything.
