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.
AI detector, plagiarism and content-quality checks in one scan
Classifies text as AI, original or mixed and pinpoints which sentences most influenced the score, so reviewers know exactly where to look.
Runs plagiarism matching, readability scoring, grammar and spelling fixes, guideline checks and fact/hallucination screening from the same scan.
Upload DOCX, PDF or DOC files, paste text, scan a URL, or queue large batches of documents to process at scale.
Check content inside Chrome and Google Docs, or wire detection into your own apps through the REST API and MCP server.
