## Get Clean Markdown from Any Telegram Channel

No account, no API key, no setup. Just paste the link and download.

## What You Get

- **Clean .md file** — one file per channel, pure Markdown with post separators and dates
- **Frontmatter-ready** — channel name, export date, post count included in file header
- **TXT also available** — plain text if you prefer grep-friendly output
- **One file, not a folder** — no ZIP archives to unpack, no directory trees

## How It Works

1. **Paste a link** — any public Telegram channel URL (t.me/channel, @username)
2. **Choose format** — Markdown (default) or plain TXT
3. **Download** — instant .md file with all posts

No browser extensions, no Docker containers, no Python scripts running on your machine.

## Why Clean Markdown Matters

LLM pipelines need structured text. Telegram's native export includes ads, metadata, HTML, and formatting noise. Raw scraping gives you mixed text with emojis, mentions, and inline links as raw markup.

telegram2text strips all that. You get:

- **LLM-ready input** — feed directly into tokenizers without cleaning
- **Portable format** — .md works in any IDE, any OS, any toolchain
- **No parsing needed** — each post is a block with a heading and date

## Use Cases

- **AI / LLM pipeline** — build training datasets, RAG corpora, or fine-tuning data from domain-specific channels. Export to .md, tokenize directly.
- **Research** — analyze channel content, discourse patterns, or information flows with clean text instead of HTML soup.
- **Toolchain integration** — paste a channel, download a clean `.md` file, drop it into any data pipeline.
- **Offline archive** — save a channel as a single .md file, read in any Markdown viewer on any device.

## FAQ

**Is my data private?** We don't store channel content. The export is generated on-the-fly and served once. Basic access logs (IP, channel, timestamp) are kept for rate limiting.

**How many posts can I export?** Up to 10,000 posts per channel. For larger channels, use the TXT format for smaller file size.

**Can I export private channels?** No — only public channels are supported. Private channels require Telegram authentication, which we don't handle.

**Do I need to install anything?** Zero installation. It's a web tool — paste, click, download.

**Is it really free?** Yes. Free during beta. No paywall, no hidden limits.
