The case for slow reading on the modern web.
The browser was once a window to the world. Today it asks too much of us: thirty open tabs, the ping of new mail, the scroll that never quite ends.
Capture any article, blog post, or piece of documentation. Convertosaur turns it into a clean EPUB, PDF, AZW3 or MOBI — sent wherever you actually read.

EPUB
.epub
Open ebook standard. Reflowable, properly typeset, works everywhere.
Fixed pages — best for code blocks, dense documentation, printing.
AZW3
.azw3
Amazon's modern Kindle format. Sharper layout than MOBI.
MOBI
.mobi
Older Kindle format — for first-gen and pre-2018 devices.
Download
The bound file lands straight in your computer's downloads folder.
Google Drive
Synced into a folder you pick — same file on every device.
The extension does the work. You keep reading; we keep binding.
An article, a research paper, a 20-tab-deep documentation site. Anything readable in the browser.
Pick a format and a destination. Convertosaur strips the ads, the nav, the cookie banner — keeps the words.
Kindle, Boox, Remarkable, iPad, phone. Wherever you actually settle in to read long-form.
Most of the work in turning a webpage into a book is small, careful, unglamorous work. We do it.
The article body, the images, the captions, the code blocks. The rest goes in the bin.
Properly-set headings, paragraph indents, smart quotes, hyphenation, page numbers, table of contents.
No broken hotlinks when you read on a train. Diagrams stay sharp; photos shrink.
Conversion runs server-side. The bound file is held briefly for delivery and deleted within 24 hours — we don't keep analytics on what you've converted.
Convertosaur's one real cost is server time. The plans buy you more of it.
Cancel any time. Install free first — upgrade later.

If you can read the page in your browser, Convertosaur can convert it — including subscriber-only articles, internal documentation, and pages behind SSO. The extension captures what your browser already sees.
One web page becomes one file. Failed conversions don't count against your weekly quota.
No reading-history log. Page content is processed and discarded after conversion. We keep a small task record — the source URL, status, and timestamp — tied to your account so you can retry failed conversions, and the converted file is kept briefly for delivery before being deleted within 24 hours.
Almost anything. The captured page (HTML or MHTML) needs to fit under a 10 MB upload cap, and there's a per-page processing time cap on top of that. Article-length and most book-length pages convert fine; pages that are unusually heavy on inline images are the most likely to hit the limit.
