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.

Let AI agents drive your real Chrome browser with full Playwright power
Agents get a single execute tool that runs arbitrary Playwright code, avoiding schema bloat from dozens of predefined commands.
Runs in your existing Chrome so logins, cookies, and extensions are already available — no separate headless instance or re-authentication.
Generate readable accessibility trees with automatic diffing, and overlay numbered visual labels that map refs to page elements.
Set JavaScript breakpoints, edit live code, intercept and replay network requests, and inspect response schemas without leaving the workflow.
