A Markdown to plain text converter removes Markdown syntax (the # before headings, the ** around bold text, the brackets and parentheses of links, the pipes of tables) and leaves the readable words. Paste Markdown and the plain text appears next to it.
The converter parses the Markdown properly rather than deleting symbols with find and replace, so asterisks inside code, maths like 2*3*4 and underscores in snake_case names survive. Lists keep a bullet (•, -, * or none) and their numbers and indentation, tables become tab-separated rows you can paste into a spreadsheet, and code blocks can be kept or dropped. Links show their text, with the URL in brackets if you turn that on.
Limits: images keep only their alt text, and raw HTML tags are removed.
Markdown symbols look like noise in places that don't render them: SMS, plain-text email, form fields, subtitles, app store listings, or text you feed to a word counter or text-to-speech. AI chatbots also answer in Markdown, so stripping it is a common clean-up step.

Paste the answer here. The plain text on the right has no #, ** or other symbols, with lists still laid out as lists.
No. The text is parsed as Markdown, so symbols inside code spans and code blocks are left as they are, and asterisks used for multiplication aren't stripped.
Each row becomes a line with tab-separated cells, which pastes cleanly into Excel or Google Sheets.
Yes. Tick Keep link URLs in brackets and each link appears as text (https://…).
No, it runs in your browser.
Each one opens on its own page and works straight away, with no sign-up.
