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.
One OpenAI-compatible API to route, monitor and control 250+ LLM models
Keep your existing OpenAI SDK code and change only the base URL to reach 250+ models from 40+ providers through one integration.
If a provider errors, times out or rate-limits, the gateway can retry up to twice on another provider within the same request, so your app still gets a response.
Track requests, tokens, total spend and average cost per 1K tokens, plus per-model and per-provider breakdowns, cache hit rates and error monitoring.
Detect prompt injection, jailbreak attempts, PII, card numbers and secrets, then block, redact or warn; manage all provider keys in one scoped dashboard.
Offers broader multi-provider model routing with instant top-ups, but lacks self-hosted deployment flexibility.
