How this service works
ScrapingAnt — Scrape a URL and return LLM-ready markdown (rendered in headless Chrome, then converted). Pass `url`; optional browser/wait_for_selector/proxy_country/timeout knobs. Returns `{ url, markdown }`. Alternative to crw/scrape or firecrawl/scrape when you want ScrapingAnt's proxy pool behind the fetch.
Output
Returns a JSON object with two fields: `url` (the original URL that was scraped) and `markdown` (the full page content converted to LLM-ready markdown after headless Chrome rendering). The markdown is cleaned of scripts and styling, preserving readable structure like headings, lists, and links.
Example use cases
Scrape paywalled or bot-protected news
“Fetch https://www.wsj.com/tech/ai/latest-ai-regulation-article and return the full article as markdown using a US proxy — the site blocks regular scrapers so use ScrapingAnt's residential proxies.”
Extract product details from e-commerce page
“Scrape https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0EXAMPLE123 with a headless browser and give me the product description, specs, and reviews as markdown so I can summarize it.”
Pull documentation for LLM context
“Fetch https://docs.stripe.com/api/charges and convert it to clean markdown using ScrapingAnt — I need the rendered content, not raw HTML, to feed into my coding assistant.”
Technical details
Endpoint
POSThttps://vaaya.ai/api/run/scrapingant/markdownWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint over generic fetch tools or firecrawl/scrape when you specifically want ScrapingAnt's residential proxy pool to bypass bot-detection, need headless Chrome to render JavaScript-heavy pages, or need output pre-formatted as clean LLM-ready markdown. Prefer it when the target site is known to block datacenter IPs or requires a specific geographic proxy origin. If you need multi-page crawling instead of a single URL, use the sibling CRW crawl endpoint.
Side effects
- URL is unreachable or returns a non-200 status — empty or error markdown returned
- Target site blocks all proxies including ScrapingAnt's pool — partial or empty content
- wait_for_selector never appears in the DOM — timeout error
- Invalid or malformed URL input — validation error
- Timeout exceeded due to slow page load — partial render returned
- Geo-restricted content not available in the requested proxy_country — empty or blocked response
