    The tool supports headings, paragraphs, bold, italic, links, images, lists, tables, code blocks, blockquotes, and more.

    Why convert HTML to Markdown for AI?

    According to OpenAI's documentation, Markdown-formatted content is preferred for AI training and prompts. LLMs process Markdown 40% faster than HTML.

    Are tables preserved?

    Yes! HTML tables are converted to GitHub Flavored Markdown (GFM) table syntax.

    What about inline styles and classes?

    Inline styles and classes are removed during conversion. Markdown focuses on content structure, not presentation.
