description: Convert websites and URLs to LLM ready Markdown. Use to save tokens when reading websites (headings, lists, tables, links), YouTube URLs (transcripts) and PDFs (including stdin with -x or -m hints). If `markitdown` fails, fall back to `curl r.jina.ai/URL`.

Installed extras in this environment: `markitdown[pdf,youtube-transcription]`.

1. Convert websites and URLs.
11
+
12
+
Web page to Markdown:
13
+
14
+
```bash
15
+
markitdown 'https://example.com' -o page.md
16
+
```
17
+
18
+
If MarkItDown fails on a URL, fall back to r.jina.ai:
19
+
20
+
```bash
21
+
curl -fsSL 'https://r.jina.ai/https://example.com' > page.md
22
+
```
23
+
24
+
YouTube URL to transcript Markdown:
25
+
26
+
```bash
27
+
markitdown 'https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VIDEO_ID' -o video.md
28
+
```
29
+
30
+
2. Convert PDFs.
31
+
32
+
Convert a file (stdout):
33
+
34
+
```bash
35
+
markitdown path/to/file.pdf
36
+
```
37
+
38
+
Write to a file:
39
+
40
+
```bash
41
+
markitdown path/to/file.pdf -o output.md
42
+
```
43
+
44
+
If reading from stdin, set hints so MarkItDown picks the PDF converter:
45
+
46
+
```bash
47
+
cat file | markitdown -x pdf
48
+
cat file | markitdown -m application/pdf
49
+
```
