## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a quick, lightweight extraction of a webpage's title and readable markdown content from a single URL without needing full structured scraping or deep crawling. It is ideal for agents that need to summarize, quote, or reference web content inline. Prefer it over heavier scraping tools when only a title and text excerpt are needed, and when cost-efficiency matters at $0.005 per call.

## Known failure modes

- URL is unreachable or returns a non-200 status — likely returns an error or empty content
- URL points to a non-HTML resource (e.g. PDF, binary) — may fail to extract markdown
- Paywalled or login-required pages — content may be minimal or blocked
- Malformed URL input — validation error returned
- Payment not completed or insufficient USDC balance — request rejected
