EPUB text extraction in the browser

An EPUB is a ZIP of XHTML chapters. This tool unzips it with JSZip, strips the HTML tags and concatenates the text — entirely on your device. Formatting and images are not preserved.

Does it keep chapters in order?
Chapters are read in file order, which matches reading order for most ebooks.
Are my files uploaded?
No. Everything is processed locally in your browser, so your files never leave your device.
