How this service works
Retrieve the readable text of up to 10 web pages by URL, with optional query-focused highlights. Pages are served from a crawl cache when the page is fresh enough and live-crawls otherwise, so this answers for pages a plain fetch would be blocked from. Returns per-URL status so a page that could not be read is named rather than silently missing.
Output
Returns a per-URL result set, each containing the extracted readable text of the page and, when highlights are requested, the most query-relevant passages. Pages that could not be retrieved include a named status/error rather than being silently omitted.
Example use cases
Summarize competitor blog posts
“Grab the full text from these five competitor blog URLs and summarize what each one is saying about AI pricing trends: [list of URLs].”
Research from paywalled or bot-blocked news
“Pull the readable article content from these two news URLs that keep blocking my browser — I need the full text so I can fact-check the claims made about the FDA ruling.”
Answer question from multiple sources
“Read the content of these four URLs and find the passages most relevant to the question 'what are the side effects of metformin' so I can compile an answer.”
Technical details
Endpoint
POSThttps://agent402.tools/api/exa-contents?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need the full readable text of specific known URLs, especially from sites that block direct HTTP fetching or curl. It is better than a search API when you already have the URLs and need content rather than discovery. The Exa cache layer means it can read pages that rate-limit or bot-block naive scrapers. Use the highlights option when you want only the most relevant passages for a specific question rather than the full body.
Side effects
- URL is completely inaccessible even via live-crawl — named error returned for that URL
- Crawl cache is stale and live-crawl also fails — per-URL failure status returned
- More than 10 URLs provided — request rejected
- Highlights requested without a query — highlights may be empty or ignored
- Payment failure via x402 — request not processed
