Web to Markdown, done right

Built for site migrations that stay clean. Crawl a page, a path, or a whole site; get tidy Markdown, with content images pulled in and a featured image chosen.

Extract

A page, a path, or the whole site.

Point Quillpull at a URL and choose the scope. It renders each page in a real browser, so JavaScript-heavy sites come through complete, and isolates the article from the nav, header, and footer.

Scoped crawling

Extract only what you want, find it anywhere.

The path scope pulls every page beneath a base like /services at any depth. The whole site is still crawled to discover them, so an in-scope page linked from anywhere is found, and only your pages are kept.

  • Single page, a base path, or the full site
  • Include or exclude the base page itself
  • An adjustable page cap and per-page include and exclude review

Clean Markdown

Messy pages in, clean Markdown out.

Rendered HTML is run through Readability to find the real content, then Turndown converts it to Markdown with front matter for the title, source URL, date, and excerpt. No wrapper divs, no tracking scripts, no chrome.

Tuned per template

A blocklist and a link policy you control.

Strip related-posts blocks or newsletter CTAs with a CSS selector blocklist, and choose how links are written so internal links point at the new site instead of the old domain.

  • Editable selector blocklist, applied before conversion
  • Keep absolute, rewrite root-relative, or move to a new domain
  • External links always keep their full URLs

Content images

The images come too.

Quillpull pulls the images inside the content, both <img> and CSS backgrounds, downloads them into an images/<slug>/ folder, and links them in the Markdown. Lazy-loaded and animation-hidden images are materialized first, and page-builder headers are skipped.

A featured image, picked for you

The first content image becomes the featured one.

The first image in the content, a hero background or the first in the body, is recorded as the featured image, ready to use as the post thumbnail wherever the content lands.
