Markdown Image Extractor (URLs, Alt Text, Sizes)
Pull every image reference out of a Markdown document — inline  and reference-style ![alt][ref]. Output includes URL, alt text, and optional title. Useful for image audits and asset migration.
How to use the Markdown Image Extractor (URLs, Alt Text, Sizes)
Paste Markdown. The tool extracts every  and ![alt][ref] image reference and lists them.
Pulling image references out of Markdown
Markdown references images in two ways: the inline form  and the reference form ![alt][label] with the URL defined elsewhere in the file. A long document can scatter dozens of both, mixing absolute URLs, relative paths, and reference labels, which makes auditing or migrating the images tedious to do by eye.
This extractor scans the whole document and lists every image it finds, resolving reference-style links to their actual URLs and reporting the alt text and any title alongside each. That gives you a clean inventory — useful for checking that every image has alt text for accessibility, or for collecting the asset URLs before moving a post to a new host.
Common use cases
- Image audits — list every image to confirm each has meaningful alt text.
- Asset migration — collect all image URLs before moving content to a new host or CDN.
- Finding broken paths — review relative paths and URLs for ones that no longer resolve.
- Accessibility checks — spot images with empty or missing alt text.
- Resolving references — see what URL each reference-style image label actually points to.
