Hosted and open-source API that searches the web and converts pages, documents, and sites into LLM-ready markdown or structured JSON.
Why you might care
Aimed at AI agents and apps that need clean web data without running their own scraping infrastructure; it handles JS-heavy pages, proxies, and rate limits. Covers search, scrape, crawl, map, batch scrape, parsing of PDFs and DOCX, and change monitoring, with an MCP client option. Note the license is AGPL-3.0, which matters for embedding it in closed-source products.
