One scraping API that turns any website into agent-ready JSON
Extract any URL as Markdown, JSON, screenshot, or HTML; list every URL on a domain; and crawl whole sites with depth, include/exclude rules, and async streaming.
Pre-built read and write operations for sites that have no public API — Amazon product search, LinkedIn messaging, Reddit and Twitter posts, Zillow listings, and thousands more, all in one consistent request shape.
A multi-stage plan-search-read-verify pipeline returns structured, cited answers, while the Search API delivers full page content per result so it plugs directly into retrieval pipelines.
Exposes the platform as tools inside Claude, Cursor and other MCP clients, with documented setups for Zapier, Make, n8n, Dify, LangChain and CrewAI.
Web data API that turns any site into clean, AI-ready content
Multiple endpoints cover discovery, single-page extraction, whole-site crawling, and URL mapping from one API.
Returns Markdown, structured JSON, HTML, links, and screenshots while stripping navigation, ads, and footers to cut token usage.
After scraping, drive clicks, typing, scrolling, and navigation with prompts or code to reach data behind interaction.
Python and Node SDKs, REST API, CLI, and an MCP server let agents and IDEs connect in minutes.
