How this service works
Process the files and content an agent gives you. Nothing else. A pay-per-call kit for AI agents in USDC on Base (x402/MPP): pdf, web-read, extract, summarize, and the free detect-language entry point - see GET /capabilities. Plus two tools outside the kit: translate and jobs.
Output
A JSON object containing: 'markdown' (the full document text converted to Markdown), 'metadata' (title, author, date, page count), and 'token_count' (number of tokens in the extracted content).
Example use cases
Research paper text extraction
“I need to read this academic PDF at https://arxiv.org/pdf/2310.12345.pdf — can you pull out all the text as markdown so I can analyze it?”
Legal contract parsing
“Extract all the text from this contract PDF so I can review the clauses: https://files.example.com/contract-2024.pdf”
Government report ingestion
“Can you read this government report PDF and give me the content in markdown? It's a base64-encoded file I'll pass you directly.”
Technical details
Endpoint
POSThttps://x402.agentindex.world/pdfWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you need to extract the full text content of a PDF — whether hosted at a public URL or available as a base64-encoded blob — and want the result as Markdown with document metadata (title, author, page count). Prefer this over generic web-read endpoints when the source is definitively a PDF. It is particularly well-suited for AI pipelines that need to ingest document content for downstream summarization, fact-checking, or analysis, and where micropayment via x402/USDC on Base is acceptable.
Side effects
- PDF URL is not publicly accessible or returns a non-200 status — endpoint will fail to fetch the document
- Providing both url and pdf_base64 simultaneously — only one should be supplied
- Malformed or password-protected PDFs may result in empty or partial extraction
- Very large PDFs may time out or produce truncated results
- Non-PDF URLs passed as url will result in parsing errors
