How this service works
URL to clean main-content markdown/text for AI agents. Paid per call via x402 ($0.005 USDC on Base).
Output
Returns a JSON object containing the page URL, title, format used (markdown or text), content length in characters, HTTP status code from the origin, the cleaned main-body content as a markdown or plain-text string, and a boolean indicating whether the content was truncated.
Example use cases
Research article ingestion for AI
“Grab the main content from this research paper page https://arxiv.org/abs/2401.00001 as markdown — I want to feed it into my summarizer.”
News article text extraction
“Read https://www.bbc.com/news/technology-68123456 and return just the article text, no ads or navigation, in plain text format.”
Competitor blog monitoring
“Fetch the content of https://openai.com/blog/new-models-and-developer-products-announced-at-devday as markdown so I can compare it to our product roadmap.”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://pageread.agentpageread.workers.dev/read?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Choose pageread when you need a lightweight, pay-per-call web content extraction service that returns AI-ready markdown or plain text from a single public URL. It is ideal for agent pipelines that need clean readable content without building or maintaining a scraper, and when micropayment-based access (x402/USDC on Base) is acceptable. Prefer alternatives if you need JavaScript rendering for SPAs, bulk crawling, or structured data extraction beyond prose content.
Side effects
- Non-public or paywalled URLs may return incomplete content or HTTP 403/401 from the origin
- Invalid or malformed URLs will cause a request error
- Very large pages may be truncated (truncated: true in response)
- Payment failure via x402 will block the request before fetching
- Dynamic JavaScript-rendered pages may return incomplete content if not server-side rendered
- Unreachable URLs (timeouts, DNS failures) will return a non-200 status
