Markdown extraction

Extract clean markdown from any page

We load the page, extract the markdown, clean it, remove clutter and junk, and return only the useful content. The result is formatted markdown that is ready to use in your AI agent.

Cleaned and formatted for you.
We remove menus, cookie banners, footers, ads, and other junk, then format the markdown so it is easy to work with.
Ready for your AI agent.
Use the result directly in prompts, indexing, or storage without adding another cleanup step.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about our web crawling service

What is WebcrawlerAPI?

WebcrawlerAPI is a web crawler API that allows you to extract data from all pages of a website with a single request.

Is the markdown clean enough to use directly in an LLM prompt?

Yes. We strip menus, footers, cookie banners, ads, and other noise before returning the content. The result is structured markdown you can pass directly into a prompt or index into a vector store without extra cleanup.

How do I keep my knowledge base fresh when docs change?

Use our Feeds feature. Set up a feed for any site and we detect which pages changed, returning only updated content. No polling loops, no duplicate fetches, no wasted tokens.

Do I need to pay a subscription to use WebcrawlerAPI?

No subscription required โ€” you can always use the pay-as-you-go plan, topping up your account and paying only for successful requests. If you need higher volumes, a subscription plan is available that lowers the per-request price.

Can I try WebcrawlerAPI before purchasing?

Yes, you can try WebcrawlerAPI by signing up in our dashboard and creating an account. No credit card required.
