Convert HTML to Clean Markdown

Paste HTML, rich text or a Telegram message and Formatisse gives clean Markdown back: headings, lists, links, tables and code keep their structure, while scripts and layout wrappers are dropped.

Instant conversionClean MarkdownTelegram HTML
In short

Paste HTML into the tool above and get clean Markdown back. Headings, bold, italic, links, inline code, code blocks, ordered and unordered lists, blockquotes and nested combinations all convert; tags with no Markdown equivalent are stripped cleanly instead of being left behind as noise.

It is built specifically around Telegram HTML, so the tags a bot actually emits map accurately to their Markdown forms — the exact case that trips generic converters. vust converts the text itself, without a third-party AI service, and your text is not stored beyond session history.

Content HTML is the right input: an article body, a formatted fragment, a message copied out of a bot. A full web page will give up its text and lose the CSS, scripts and layout wrappers, which is usually the point. Web conversion is free for up to 20 runs.

What the converter is for

Markdown Converter is for structure cleanup, not document layout preservation.

16 conversions, free for up to 20 runs on the web.

Best for

HTML snippets, Telegram formatting, clean article content, and supported document or data formats that need readable Markdown.

Not ideal for

Recreating complex CSS, JavaScript behavior, page layout, or polished document design. It is not a full document editor.

In short:

Use Markdown Converter when the next action is to copy, edit, or publish clean Markdown. It is not a browser rendering engine and not intended to preserve complex CSS or JavaScript layouts.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What HTML tags are supported?

All common tags: headings (h1–h6), bold, italic, links, code, pre, lists (ordered and unordered), blockquotes, and nested combinations. Unsupported tags are stripped cleanly.

Does it work with Telegram formatting?

Yes — it's specifically built for Telegram HTML. Tags like <b>, <i>, <code>, <pre>, and <a> are converted accurately to their Markdown equivalents.

Is conversion done on the server?

Yes. vust converts the text itself, without a third-party AI service, and your text is not stored beyond session history.

Can I use this for full web pages?

It works best with content HTML (article body, formatted text). Full web pages with CSS, scripts, and layout tags will have those elements stripped — only the text content converts.

Why is it called Formatisse?

Format plus Matisse: it turns messy HTML or rich text into clean, well-composed Markdown.
