You can try HtmlAgilityPack[^]. The HTML then becomes queryable through Linq Like:

C#

HtmlDocument htmlDoc = webBrowser1.Document as HtmlDocument;
string innerText = htmlDoc.DocumentNode.Descendants("body").Single().InnerText;

You can also load the HTML as a string or stream through LoadHtml and Load respectively
