Pull the full visible text and capture a screenshot from any webpage. Get clean, structured content from any URL for audits, archival, or competitive research.
There are dozens of reasons you might need the text from a webpage outside of a browser - content audits, competitive analysis, archival, legal compliance, migration planning. And in every case, the process is the same frustrating routine: select all, copy, paste, clean up formatting. This robot eliminates that.
Give it any URL and it returns the full visible text as clean, structured data alongside a full-page screenshot. The text is ready for analysis, the screenshot is ready for documentation, and neither required you to visit the page yourself.
Why use a robot instead of copy-paste:
| Field | Example Data |
|---|---|
| URL | https://example.com/about |
| Extracted Text | About Us - We are a leading provider of... |
| Screenshot | Full-page PNG image captured at time of extraction |
| Timestamp | 2026-02-25 14:30:00 UTC |
| Page Title | About Us | Example Company |
This is one of the simplest robots in the Browse AI library. One URL in, clean text and a screenshot out. No configuration needed.

Try this robot free →Clean text extraction is a building block for a surprising number of professional workflows:
The robot produces two outputs from each URL:
| Field | What it contains |
|---|---|
| Full Text | all visible text content from the webpage, cleaned of HTML markup. |
| Screenshot | a full-page PNG screenshot captured at the moment of extraction. |
The text extraction captures what a visitor would read on the page. Content loaded dynamically (behind clicks, tabs, or accordions) may not be included if it requires user interaction to display.
What is a website text extractor?
A tool that visits a URL, reads all visible text on the page, and returns it as clean, structured data. This robot also captures a full-page screenshot. No manual copying needed.
Is the free plan enough to try this?
Yes. Browse AI's free tier includes credits to test this robot on several pages. Try it on a few URLs and review the output before upgrading.
Can I extract text from pages that require login?
This robot works with publicly accessible pages. Content behind authentication walls requires a different approach.
What about JavaScript-rendered content?
The robot loads the page in a full browser environment, so JavaScript-rendered content is captured. However, content that only appears after user interaction (clicking buttons or scrolling) may not be included.
Can I extract text from PDFs?
This robot is designed for web pages. For PDF content extraction, you would need a different tool.
How does scheduling work?
Set the robot to run on any recurring schedule - daily, weekly, or custom. Use it to monitor content changes on important pages and get notified when text is added, removed, or updated.
Text extraction is often the second step in a larger workflow. These robots can help with the first step - finding the URLs worth extracting:
Paste a URL, get clean text and a screenshot. Free to start, nothing to install.
