HTML Tag Stripper

Strip HTML tags and keep the remaining plain text.

HTML Tag Stripper deletes tags (and common script/style blocks) so you can keep the visible text content only.

When to use HTML Tag Stripper

  • Extracting plain text from rich HTML

  • Preparing text for non-HTML destinations

How to use

  1. Paste HTML. Include the markup you want flattened to text.
  2. Strip tags. Run to remove tags and collapse leftover spacing.
  3. Use plain text. Copy the text-only result.

Processing and limitations

Removes markup, script and style contents, decodes entities and normalizes spacing. Inline words stay together; common block elements get separating spaces. This extracts text, not a reusable sanitized HTML fragment.
