How this service works
Web read / URL to markdown (batch, JavaScript rendering), PDF text extraction and website change monitoring for agents. From $0.003 per URL on Base. x402 USDC, no API key.
Output
Returns a JSON object containing: the extracted page text or markdown (up to 60,000 characters), the page title, the final URL after any redirects, the HTTP status code from the origin server, content-type header, a SHA-256 hash of the extracted text (useful for change detection), a timestamp of when the page was fetched, a boolean indicating whether JavaScript rendering was used, a truncated flag if the content exceeded the character limit, and any warnings encountered during fetch.
Example use cases
Ingest documentation for RAG
“Pull the full text from https://stripe.com/docs/api as markdown so I can chunk it and load it into my vector store for RAG.”
Summarize a competitor pricing page
“Fetch https://www.competitor.com/pricing as clean text — make sure JavaScript is rendered — so I can summarize their current pricing tiers.”
Extract a specific page section
“Get the content from https://news.ycombinator.com using the CSS selector '.athing' so I can pull just the story headlines from Hacker News front page.”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://api.agentwork.run/v1/web/fetch?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need to fetch a single public URL and convert it to clean text or markdown for LLM consumption, especially when the target page uses JavaScript rendering. It is ideal for RAG ingestion pipelines, one-off research tasks, and agent workflows that need webpage content without managing browser infrastructure. Prefer this over the change-monitoring sibling when you want raw content rather than diffs, and over the PDF-extraction sibling when the target is an HTML page rather than a PDF document. The x402/USDC pay-per-call model makes it attractive for agents that need web access without API key management.
Side effects
- URL is not publicly accessible or requires authentication — returns an error or empty content
- JavaScript rendering timeout for very complex SPAs
- Content exceeds max_chars limit — response will be truncated with truncated: true flag
- PDF or binary content served at URL instead of HTML — may return empty or garbled text
- DNS resolution failure or network timeout for the target URL
- Rate limiting or bot protection (e.g. Cloudflare) on the target site blocking the fetch
