Remove HTML tags workflow tips

Use this tool when copied content includes visible tags or CMS/email markup and you need clean text before editing, publishing, or sharing.

Strip tags without rendering HTML

The input is treated as text and the cleaned output is shown in a textarea, so pasted markup is not executed or displayed as raw HTML.

Clean the result

After stripping tags, use Remove Extra Spaces, Remove Line Breaks, or Trim Lines to tighten the final text.

Need format conversion?

Use HTML to Plain Text for a fuller conversion page, or HTML to Markdown when you want Markdown syntax instead of plain text.

What this tool does

Strips tags from HTML snippets, copied page source, CMS fields, and email markup while optionally preserving paragraph/list breaks, removing script and style blocks, and decoding common HTML entities.

Common use cases

Strip HTML tags from copied markup, CMS snippets, email source, and page exports so the readable text can be reused.

Use Remove HTML Tags when pasted text needs counting, cleanup, rewriting, list preparation, formatting, or a final check before it goes into an email, document, CMS, spreadsheet, prompt, or publishing workflow.

How to use it

  1. Paste the HTML snippet, copied page section, CMS export, or email markup you want to clean.
  2. Choose whether to preserve block breaks, remove scripts/styles, and decode common entities.
  3. Copy the clean text output or continue with spacing, line-break, and formatting tools.

Example workflow

Paste the text you need to count, clean, split, join, sort, or reformat. Review the word, character, line, sentence, paragraph, spacing, or list result, then copy the cleaned output into your document, spreadsheet, CMS, prompt, or editor.

Privacy note

Remove HTML Tags runs locally in your browser. ClearUtils does not upload, store, transmit, or render your pasted markup.

FAQ

Does this render my pasted HTML?

No. The tool treats pasted HTML as text, strips tags, and shows the cleaned result in a textarea without rendering raw HTML.

Can it remove script and style blocks?

Yes. Script and style blocks are removed by default so code and CSS noise do not appear in the cleaned text output.

Is my HTML uploaded?

No. HTML tag removal runs locally in your browser and does not send pasted markup to ClearUtils servers.
