HTML cleaner

Clean pasted Word or Google Docs HTML for any CMS. Runs in your browser — nothing is stored or sent anywhere.

HTML copied from Word, Google Docs, email editors, or any rich-text source.

Why you need an HTML cleaner

When you copy content from Word, Google Docs, or email editors and paste it into a CMS, the resulting HTML is full of junk: inline styles, empty tags, MSO conditional comments, non-breaking spaces, and class names that belong to the source document, not your website. This bloat breaks your design, inflates page weight, and makes the content nearly impossible to maintain by hand.

What gets cleaned

The tool strips six categories of HTML junk, each controlled by its own toggle:

Inline styles — removes every style="..." attribute
Empty spans/divs — deletes wrapper tags with no visible content
Empty paragraphs — removes <p> tags that are blank or only whitespace
MSO/Docs comments — strips <!-- ... --> conditional comments
&nbsp; — replaces non-breaking spaces with regular spaces
Class attributes — removes all class="..." attributes

Common use cases

Marketers and content teams paste from Google Docs into WordPress, Shopify, HubSpot, Mailchimp, and other platforms every day. Without cleaning, you inherit font-family declarations, color overrides, and layout classes from the source app. This tool gives you clean, semantic HTML you can safely paste into any CMS or email builder.

Privacy and data handling

The HTML cleaner runs entirely in your browser using the DOMParser API. Your content is never sent to a server, stored, or logged. Close the tab and everything is gone.
