Remove Markdown from AI Responses

Paste text from ChatGPT, Claude, or any AI assistant. Get clean output for WhatsApp, LinkedIn, CLI terminals, or plain text. No signup, instant results.

How It Works

  1. Paste — Copy the response from your AI assistant and paste it into the input field above.
  2. Choose a format — Click one of the four buttons: Remove All, WhatsApp, LinkedIn, or CLI depending on where you'll use the text.
  3. Copy the result — The cleaned text appears instantly in the output field. Hit Copy and paste it anywhere.

Formatting Options

Remove All Formatting

Strips every trace of markdown: headers, bold, italic, code blocks, links, tables, and bullet markers. Use this when you need completely plain text — for emails, documents, or any context where formatting characters would look out of place.

Format for WhatsApp

Converts markdown to WhatsApp-native formatting. Bold stays as *bold*, italic becomes _italic_, and code blocks use monospace backticks. Incompatible elements like headers and links are cleaned up so the message reads naturally in any WhatsApp chat.

Format for LinkedIn

Optimizes text for LinkedIn posts and comments. Keeps bold and italic where LinkedIn supports them, converts links to readable URLs, and removes code blocks and other elements that don't render on the platform. The result looks polished in your feed.

Clean CLI Output

Designed for developers who copy AI-generated text into terminal environments. Removes markdown formatting while preserving code structure, indentation, and command examples. Ideal for pasting instructions into a terminal, README draft, or plain-text config file.

Supported AI Assistants

Clean MD works with responses from any AI tool that outputs markdown-formatted text, including:

  • ChatGPT (OpenAI)
  • Claude (Anthropic)
  • Gemini (Google)
  • Copilot (Microsoft)
  • Perplexity
  • DeepSeek
  • Mistral
  • Llama (Meta)
  • Grok (xAI)

If your AI assistant produces text with markdown bold, headers, code fences, or bullet points, Clean MD can strip or convert it.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why do AI responses contain markdown?

Large language models like ChatGPT and Claude are trained on text that includes markdown formatting. They use bold, headers, code blocks, and lists to structure their answers. This looks great inside the AI chat interface but creates clutter when you paste the text elsewhere.

Is my text sent to a server?

No. All formatting happens directly in your browser using JavaScript. Your text never leaves your device — nothing is uploaded, stored, or logged.

Can I use Clean MD on my phone?

Yes. The tool is fully responsive and works on any device with a web browser. Paste your AI text, tap a formatting button, and copy the result.

What is the CLI formatting option?

The CLI option is for developers who paste AI responses into terminals or plain-text editors. It strips markdown while keeping code indentation and command structure intact, so the text is ready to use in a command-line environment.

Does Clean MD handle code blocks?

Yes. In Remove All mode, code fences and inline backticks are stripped completely. In WhatsApp mode, code blocks are converted to WhatsApp monospace format. In CLI mode, the code content is preserved with its original indentation.
