Markdown provides structured text that AI tools can process more efficiently than HTML, which results in better response accuracy, faster processing times, and lower token usage.
Mintlify automatically generates Markdown versions of pages that are optimized for AI tools and external integrations.
## .md URL extension
Add `.md` to any page's URL to view a Markdown version.
<PreviewButton href="https://mintlify.com/docs/ai/markdown-export.md">Open this page as Markdown</PreviewButton>
## Accept header
Send a request with `Accept: text/markdown` or `Accept: text/plain` to any page URL to receive the Markdown version instead of HTML. This is useful for AI tools and integrations that programmatically fetch documentation content.
```bash
curl -H "Accept: text/markdown" https://mintlify.com/docs/ai/markdown-export
```
## Keyboard shortcut
Press <kbd>Command</kbd> + <kbd>C</kbd> (<kbd>Ctrl</kbd> + <kbd>C</kbd> on Windows) to copy a page as Markdown to your clipboard.
