## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability netintel-dev-web-extract-33bfc7ad
```

Example prompt: Can you fetch the content of https://example.com/research-paper.pdf and give me the clean readable text — I want the title, word count, and a quality score too?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when an AI agent needs to read and process the content of a specific public URL — whether an HTML article or a PDF — without spinning up a browser or subscribing to a dedicated scraping platform. Ideal for one-off document reads, article summarization pipelines, or any workflow where clean Markdown output with quality metadata (grade, word count) is more useful than raw HTML. At $0.02 per call via micropayment, it is cost-effective for moderate-volume use cases. Prefer alternatives if you need full JavaScript rendering, login-gated pages, or bulk crawling of entire sites.

## Known failure modes

- URL is not publicly accessible or requires authentication — returns non-200 status code
- URL points to a non-HTML/PDF content type that cannot be extracted
- Target page uses heavy JavaScript rendering that produces sparse content, resulting in low quality grade
- URL is malformed or missing — returns validation error
- PDF has no text layer (image-only scan) — returns empty or minimal markdown
- Target server blocks the request or returns 403/429 — propagated as error

## How this service works

Extract web content from any page or PDF as clean Markdown — web page text, HTML to Markdown for any URL: strips scripts, nav, ads, and boilerplate while preserving headings, links, lists, tables, code blocks, and blockquotes; extracts the text layer from PDFs. Returns Markdown body, title, word count, and a quality grade. Web reader for article and main content. For JS-rendered or bot-walled pages a plain fetch can't read, use /exa/contents.

## Output

Returns a JSON object containing: the cleaned Markdown body text with headings, links, lists, tables, code blocks and blockquotes preserved; the page title; word count; character count; output bytes; quality grade (letter) and numeric score; the final URL after redirects; content type; HTTP status code; and a truncation flag indicating whether the content was cut off.
