How this service works
Scrape any URL and return clean markdown text. Alias for /api/web-scrape with enhanced markdown conversion.

Example use cases
Example prompt
“Can you scrape https://techcrunch.com/2024/06/01/openai-announcement and give me the clean readable text as markdown — I want to read the article without the clutter?”
Technical details
Endpoint
POSThttps://httpay.xyz/api/scrapeWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need to fetch and read the textual content of any public URL in clean markdown format without setting up API keys or subscriptions. Ideal for one-off reads, article extraction, and agent workflows that need to access web content on demand. At $0.01 per call via USDC micropayment, it's cost-effective for occasional scraping tasks. Prefer this over browser automation or heavyweight crawlers when you just need readable text from a single URL.
Side effects
- URL is unreachable or returns non-200 status — empty or error response
- Payment of $0.01 USDC fails or wallet has insufficient funds — 402 Payment Required
- URL points to a JavaScript-heavy SPA that doesn't render without a browser — incomplete content
- Rate limiting or bot protection on the target site blocks the scrape
- Malformed or missing URL parameter — 400 Bad Request
