What you get back
The tool fetches the page, finds the main content and writes it out as Markdown. Headings, paragraphs, lists, links, bold, italics and code blocks carry over. Menus, site headers and footers, forms, images, video and scripts are left behind.

Because it’s plain text, you can paste it anywhere and it stays readable.
What people use it for
Research and briefs
Pull the pages that rank for your topic into one doc. The headings turn into each page’s outline, so you see what a competitor covers, and in what order, without scrolling past their sidebar.
Giving an AI chat a page to read
Paste the Markdown into ChatGPT or Claude instead of a link. You know exactly what the model is reading, and it gets the text and structure without the page’s menus and scripts.
Notes you keep
Save an article into Obsidian, Notion or a docs folder as text you own. It stays readable if the page changes or disappears.
How to read a competitor’s page by its headings
Before you write a page, read the ones that already rank. Markdown makes that fast, because the outline is right there in the lines that start with #.
Convert the page that ranks
Search the phrase you want to rank for and open the top result that looks like the page you mean to write. Paste its link above.Read only the headings
Skim the # lines. That’s the page’s outline, and usually the questions it answers.Write down what’s missing
Note what a buyer would still ask after reading it. That gap is where your page can win.
Do this for three or four results and the pattern shows up quickly. Lesson 6 explains how to tell what a search is really asking for.
When the result looks short
Most pages convert cleanly. When one comes back empty or thin, it’s usually one of these.
- The page needs a login or sits behind a paywall. The tool sees what a signed-out visitor sees.
- The content loads with JavaScript. The tool reads the page as it arrives from the server, so text that appears later, like comments or tabs filled in by a script, can be missing.
- The site blocks automated visitors. Some sites turn away anything that isn’t a browser.
Check where the link lands, too. The tool follows redirects, so a shortened or tracking link converts the page it ends up on.
