Wemd Extension

Wemd Extension is a browser extension that converts web pages and WeChat articles into clean Markdown locally.

WeMD Extension converts any web page, including WeChat Official Account articles, into clean Markdown directly inside the browser. It runs locally on the live DOM with zero telemetry or accounts required, bypassing login and paywall issues common with server-side converters. The tool preserves headings, lists, tables, links, and code blocks while removing hidden template nodes and promo tails. Users can view a token savings panel before pasting content into AI models and send data directly to platforms like ChatGPT and Claude. Pro features include batch conversion, image bundling, and custom front-matter templates.
