How this service works
URL to clean JSON for AI agents. Fetches any public web page server-side and returns title, meta description, canonical URL, a heading outline, and boilerplate-stripped plain text — navigation, sidebars, cookie banners and footers removed. Saves an agent from running its own fetch + HTML-parsing + readability stack. Flat $0.01 per call, no account, no API key, no rate limit.
Output
A JSON object containing: the final resolved URL (after redirects), boilerplate-stripped plain text of the main content, page title (or null), a headings object keyed h1–h6 each with an array of heading strings, canonical URL (or null), meta/OG description (or null), word count of the extracted text, a boolean indicating if the text was truncated due to a length cap, and which HTML element (main, article, or body) the text was sourced from.
Example use cases
Research article content extraction
“Pull the main body text from this research article at https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-024-12345-6 and summarize what it's about — I need the title, headings, and clean text with no sidebar noise.”
Competitor product page analysis
“Grab the content of our competitor's product page at https://competitor.com/pricing — title, heading structure, and the plain text so I can see how they describe their offering.”
Monitor blog post for key claims
“Fetch https://techblog.example.com/2024/new-feature-announcement and return the clean article text so I can check what claims they're making about their new feature.”

Endpoint
POSThttps://pagedistill.thumm.workers.dev/extract?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when an AI agent needs to read and process the textual content of any public web page without maintaining its own fetch, HTML-parsing, and readability stack. It is ideal for one-off page reads where spinning up a headless browser is overkill and the content is server-rendered. At a flat $0.01 per call with no API key or account required, it is especially suitable for low-overhead agentic pipelines, quick content checks, or rapid prototyping. Prefer alternatives (e.g. a full headless browser service) only when JavaScript-rendered content or interactive page states are required.
Side effects
- Non-public or paywalled pages may return partial or empty text
- Pages behind authentication or CAPTCHAs cannot be fetched
- Very large pages may be truncated (truncated: true in response)
- Invalid or malformed URLs will result in an error
- JavaScript-rendered single-page apps may return incomplete content if critical content is loaded client-side
- Network timeouts if the target page is slow or unresponsive
