FAQ

What’s the difference between a TOC and an outline?

A TOC is typically formatted for navigation. An outline uses the same structure for planning and editing. This tool supports both as an Outline Extractor and a Table of Contents Extractor.

Does it work on all websites?

Most pages work well. Some sites load content dynamically. When that happens, the tool still aims to extract headings from the rendered page where possible.

What formats can I export?

You can export the outline in Markdown format.
